User’s Guide (Z-Type)
____________________________________________________________________________________
Product Description:
The Aeon CLR® 3 Series is an ultra-short throw fixed frame projection screen that uses Elite’s EDGE FREE
CLR® technology. It is designed for tabletop ultra-short throw Projectors only, for use in environments
where ceiling light cannot be entirely controlled. It includes an LED backlight kit and a bezel trim to further
enhance the frame appearance.
Screen Maintenance
Dust, dirt, and scratches on the projection screen surface will affect the quality and performance of the
projection image. For optimal results we advise to pay attention to the following instructions.
1) The screen surface has a horizontal lenticular structure. DO NOT wipe the screen up and down or in
a circular motion. Wipe from left to right only.
2) Clean the dust on the screen surface with a soft brush or microfiber cloth. A rough/coarse towel or
cloth may damage the screen’s optical/lenticular surface.
3) Gently wipe the screen with a lightly moistened white lint free cloth with water or with a neutral
detergent (1mL/0.33 oz) mixed with water (1000 mL/33.8 oz).
Notes: The following precautions should always be followed to avoid damaging the material, which is not
covered under warranty.
•Don’t touch the screen material to avoid leaving fingerprints.
•Use gloves when handling the material.
•Don’t scratch the material, as it will leave permanent markings on the screen’s surface.
•Don’t point to the screen material with a fingertip or other sharp objects to prevent damage to the
material.
•Don’t use acetone, benzene, alcohol and any other organic solvents to clean the screen material.
Using such chemicals will permanently damage the screen.

Frame Assembly
Step 1. Place a soft-clean cloth on the
ground or other flat surface of the area
where the screen will be assembled.
Step 2. Position the pieces of the frame
face-down on the soft-clean cloth in the
arrangement shown below.
Step 3. Insert the Center Joint (A) connectors into one-half of the horizontal frame and secure with 4
(M5x10mm) screws. Once secure, connect the other half of the horizontal frame and fasten with 4 more
screws.
Step 4. Connect the Elbow Joints (C) to top and bottom sections of the vertical frame. Once inserted,
connect the vertical sections to the horizontal frame sections.
Make sure all the holes are in alignment and the frame pieces are
flush (no gaps). They should form perfect right angles. NOTE:
Do not tighten elbow joints completely until all frame pieces are
assembled correctly.
Center Support Bar Installation
Step 1. Two people are suggested for this step.
Place the Center Support Bar (I) into the top
groove of the back of the frame.
Step 2. Next, slowly push and slide the opposite
side of the center support bar towards the center
as shown below.
Step 3. Using the (M4x10) screws, screw both
ends of the center support bar and make sure it
is secure.

Screen Material Installation
Step 1. Put on the gloves (L) and carefully unroll the screen material on a clean surface. Lay the screen
material completely flat with the front facing down on a clean surface in a horizontal position. The back side
of the screen material should be placed upwards.
Step 2. Carefully and gently place the assembled frame on top the screen material as shown below. Make
sure to not allow the angle edge of the frame to come in direct contact with the screen material to avoid
puncturing it.
Step 3. Insert the four horizontal and two vertical
Retention Rods (H) into the corresponding sides of
the screen material, while keeping the material lying
flat. Be careful not to snag on the holes at the edge of
the material during this process; forcing the rods
may damage the screen material.
Step 4. After the Retention rods (H) have been
inserted, make sure to have all corners aligned to the
frame and fold over the material on each corner.
Step 5. Begin by first attaching all four corners in the sequence shown below 1-4.
Hook the small end of the Spring (B) to the frame. Then use the Pull hook (E) to hook the other side of the
spring to the material making sure the spring attaches onto the Retention rod to avoid ripping the material.
Step 6. After hooking the corner springs, attach the center points on all sides. Once all center points have
been secured, work your way around the frame to hook the rest of the springs to the material.
Step 7. Once the material is completely attached, place the black rubber end caps (J) at each of the tension
rod (H) ends.
ATTENTION: Failure to attach the first corners will result in the material shifting out of place and
causing wrinkles or waves throughout the projection area.

follow the direction of the arrow.

Notice to Installer:
Projector Placement for Aeon CLR® 3.
The CLR® 3 front projection material is exclusively for table-mounted ultra-short throw projectors as
illustrated in example 1 below. Overhead placement or a standard projector will make the image very dark,
on account of the screen’s absorbent layer deflecting light that is not aligned with its reflective angle.
Example 1: Proper Projector Installation
Example 2: Improper Projector Installation
Images are not up to scale and are for illustrations purposes only.

Wall Mount Installation
Step 1. Locate your desired installation location and mark the drill-hole area of where the screen is to be
installed.
Step 2. Using the marked area, drill holes on the wall where the brackets (F) will be installed.
Step 3. Place the wall anchor (G) through the hole for each bracket on the frame.
Step 4. Line up the wall brackets with the drilled holes on the installation location and screw them in using
the M5x70 screw (G). Make sure the brackets are leveled.
Step 5. Next, (two people required) carefully hang and position the screen onto the wall.
