Before installing the screen, please read the following instructions carefully. We would recommend that these instructions
are stored safely for future reference.
When opening the packaging of the screen, please DO NOT USE CUTTERS or OTHER SHARP TOOLS that can damage the
screen inside. During opening the packaging and during installation, it is reccomended to use work gloves.
Depending on the screen weight, it has to be handled by at least two or three persons taking care to the following ratio
KG/PERSON: MALE 25 kg. – FEMALE 15 kg.
The manufacturer does not take responsibility for any damage to property or personal injury if the screen is used outside of
recommended specifications or in case of incorrect/poor quality installation.
WARRANTY
This projection screen is guaranteed 2 years from the purchase date for manufacturing defects.
Responsibility is limited to repairing or substitution of the defected components and without any other charge at our
expense.
Warranty is officially voided if the screen has been dismantled or it is returned with collision damage or defective due to
incorrect installation. Repairs must be carried out by an Approved Screen International Certified Engineer.
Warranty is officially voided if:
1) the motor is removed / dismantled;
2) the screen has been transit damaged;
3) the instructions regarding the electrical connections have not been followed;
4) the products have to be installed following the electric regulations (CEI) and the other local specific laws;
5) in the installation are used electric interfaces that does not allow the correct time lapse between up and down operation
(complete cut down of electric power on both phases for half a second)
6) electrical accessories have been used that are incompatible with the screen motor causing damage to its internal
components;
7) the motor end stops have been modified without the authorisation of the factory;
8) the sticker regarding the serial number of the product has been altered, deleted, removed or is illegible.
DO NOT install this screen nearby or over heating or air conditioning systems, because PVC is a plastic material which dilates
and remains damaged if it is subjected to heat and/or cool air.
DO NOT install this screen either facing direct sun light or blocking a window as PVC could be damaged and make waves for
the explanations given above.
The PVC cloth is very sensitive to temperature range. We advise to mount the screen in environments with an ambient
temperature in the range of 18°-25°C.
We advise you to wait 2 hours for the screen to acclimatise before using the screen after delivery, especially if screen is
brought into a warm environment from cold.
In case the screen is new or it has been rolled up for long time, roll down the screen and leave it open for ca. 24/48 hrs. with
an ambient temperature in the range of 18°-25° C in order to get a perfect flatness of the cloth
DO NOT WASH the projection surface with alcohol or solvent nor with commercial cleaners. Every now and then dust the
surface with a dry and clean duster.
Please, be very careful because any kind of stain on projection surfaces is inerasable.
The screen has to be used showing the total projection sizes indicated on the packaging; therefore it is NOT allowed to
adjust the end stops to restrict the total drop or extend it. Restricting the total drop of the screen is likely to cause your
screen surface to lose its flatness.
When the screen is not completely rolled down (as by factory setting), flatness of the cloth is NOT guaranteed and therefore
not covered by warranty.
DO NOT HANG TO THE SCREEN and DO NOT HANG ANY OBJECT to it. Please take care that children DO NOT PLAY with the
screen as they can get severely injured.
The manufacturer will not accept returns of screens for repair without manufacturer’s authorization (RMA number) and
without a suitable packaging.
IT IS FORBIDDEN TO STAY UNDER THE PROJECTION SCREEN.
IT IS FORBIDDEN TO USE THE PROJECTION SCREEN OUTDOOR.
ONCE PROJECTION IS FINISHED, ROLL UP THE SCREEN (keeping the screen rolled down can cause
deformations to the projection surface.
When you open the packaging, please CHECK that it contains ALL the components below.
In case one or more components are missed, please refer to the dealer you purchased the

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
The product has to be installed and used conform to the laws in force within the country where the product is
used.
During installation, please take care to use security belts in order to secure the screen housing.
The Raffaello screen can be mounted either on a ceiling where afterwards the false ceiling will be built around
the screen or into an existing false ceiling.
A- RAFFAELLO SCREEN INSTALLATION where afterwards the false ceiling will
be built around the screen.
In order to fix the Raffaello screen onto the concrete ceiling proceed with the following steps:
1. A Drill into the concrete ceiling two holes for the left bracket and two holes for the
right one following the picture below:

Example: If you bought a RAFFAELLO HOME CINEMA 200X125, the width of the viewing area is 200 cm. and
the distance B has to be 200 cm. + 55 cm. = 255 cm.
2. A Fix the ceiling mounting brackets to the concrete ceiling with suitable wall plugs and
bolts (NOT SUPPLIED) – see Fig. 1
3. A Cut the metal threaded rods at the desired length, taking care that the metal rod
has to go inside the top and the bottom mounting bracket, at least 3 cm.
Fix the two metal rods to the mounting brackets already fixed to the ceiling, taking
care that at least 3 cm. of metal rod goes inside the bracket (Fig. 2)
Fix each metal rod tightly with two washers and two nuts, as shown in Fig. 3.

Repeat this operation for both mounting brackets.
4. A ELECTRIC CONNECTION
Connection of the power supply must be carried out by qualified personnel only, using the
scheme showed on the drawing below (Fig. 5). Pay attention to wires colour and fix the
switcher near the screen because the rolling up or down of the projection surface should
be visible to the operator!! NEVER CONNECT MORE THAN ONE SCREEN MOTOR TO
THE SAME SWITCHER. Use the supplied switcher only. IN CASE OF MAINTENANCE,
UNPLUG THE POWER SUPPLY.
In case the screen is controlled via relais, take care that the control system is
programmed so there is no tension on the relais for at least 1 sec. during
switching between rolling up and rolling down operations and viceversa.
Now you can build around the Raffaello screen the false ceiling.
NOTE: we recommend to make into the false ceiling preferably on the left side of the
Raffaello screen, an inspection trapdoor.
5. A After construction work is finished and room is clean and dust free, remove the
straps you find at the bottom side of the screen housing (Fig. 6). At this stage, the
trapdoor will open (Fig. 7).

Fix the lower end of the metal rods to the
side brackets of the Raffaello screen, taking
care that at least 3 cm. of metal rod goes
inside the bracket.
Fix each metal rod tightly with two washers
and two nuts M8, as shown in Fig. 3.
The final result should be as in Fig. 4.
