The Opti-V uses an illusory reec-
tion technique and is designed
to work best when ambient light
levels are low. If the Opti-V is
installed in brightly lit areas, the
strong reections may diminish
the ame.
Depending on your specic ap-
plication, installation of the unit
at a height appropriate for the
viewers enjoyment is important. It
is recommended that the follow-
ing guidelines be used for locating
the unit.
!NOTE: Measurements are to
the bottom of the viewing area of
the ame.
For standing applications:
Maximum - 51 in. (129.5 cm)
Minimum - 26 in. (66.0 cm)
For sitting applications:
Maximum - 36 in. (91.4 cm)
Minimum - 26 in. (66.0 cm)
Hardwire Installation
The Opti-V is supplied in an as-
sembled state and is designed to
be permanently installed. The unit
