Thank you for choosing the Manual Tab-Tension Pro Series projection screen! This tab-tensioned manual screen
is offered in two front projection materials. The CineWhte® UHD-B best performs under a light controlled
environment since it is a matte white surface. For rooms with minimal control over room lighting, we offer our
award-winning GREENGUARD GOLD®and ISF Certified CineGrey 5D®. It is precisely formulated to
enhance picture brightness, offer accurate color fidelity, and improve contrast levels. The CineGrey 5D® is best
for family rooms, educational facilities, conference rooms, house of worship or any applications in which incident
light is a factor.
In order for the CineWhite UHD-B/CineGrey 5D® to maintain its projection qualities and optimum performance
please refer to the list below for proper maintenance and cleaning.
•Use a dry microfiber cloth to remove dust from the screen’s surface.
•When cleaning, use a damp microfiber cloth with warm water to remove any marks.
•Never rub or apply pressure when cleaning the surface.
•Never attempt to use any solutions, chemicals or abrasive cleaners on the screen surface.
•In order to avoid damaging the screen, avoid touching it directly with your fingers, pens/pencils or any
other sharp or abrasive objects.
Please be sure to read the precautions and operating instructions carefully before operating the screen.
Proper maintenance and handling will ensure a longer lifespan of the product.
Note: Wall screws included with this product are complementary and may not be adequate for all mounting
surfaces. Consult with a professional installer or hardware store for proper mounting screws and anchors.
Regardless of the mounting method, the screen should be securely supported so that the vibration or pulling on
the viewing surface will not cause the screen case to become loose or fall. The installer must ensure that proper
mounting hardware and the fasteners used are of adequate strength and suitable for the mounting surface.

C. Suspended Ceiling Installation (Additional hardware required)
1. Insert the mounting bracket to the screen case. Remove the screw, attach the bracket to the case, then secure
the bracket by screwing in the screw.
2. Attach the Eyebolt (B) onto the Mounting Bracket (A) by using one Nut (E) and the top of the Eyebolt and
insert in thru the bracket top hole and secure it with another Nut at the bottom.
3. Hang the screen onto the ceiling using a chain or snap link (not included).
Screen Operation
Note: Always pull the screen down or let it up in a 90-degree vertical angle. Do not allow the screen to touch
the screen case when the screen goes up or comes down to avoid damaging the screen material.
1. Pull the screen down from the handle/lanyard only in a 90-degree angle. Do not attempt to pull the screen
down by the surface or touch the screen, as it will damage the screen’s surface and void the warranty.
Note: An internal auto-lock mechanism system will cause the screen to stop and lock on the position at intervals.

Rev. 10152019JA 5 www.eliteproav.com
2. If you want to the screen to retract back, simply pull the screen down more than 2 inches and retract the screen
back by quickly and smoothly releasing it up gently. The screen is equipped with a SLOW RETRACT
MECHANISM (SRM) which allows the screento slowly retract without the need to hold on to the handle/lanyard.
Simply release the handle/lanyard and the screen will retract by itself.
RETRACTION TIP: Always release at a 90-degree angle and do not let go until the screen is entirely inside the
case. If ever the screen feels stuck, keep in mind that the screen’s mechanism is new and needs to be run up/down
a few times to loosen up. If this happens, carefully with a little force yank the screen straight down to unlock the
screen. Please be sure to not stand directly under the housing of the unit when yanking down on the screen.
Note: Improperly bringing the screen up/down will damage the screen material or rolling system.
Screen Material Tension Adjustment (4mm Allen Wrench required and not included)
Insert a 4mm Allen Wrench to push in the adjustment tension knob, turn clockwise and your screen will gain
more tension. Turn the Allen Wrench counter-clockwise and the screen will lose tension. Please note this
adjustment is not necessary as the tension of the screen has been set to its factory setting for best performance.
Please contact Elite Screens for assistance to avoid damaging the screen and voiding your warranty.
