12. User Tips
- Image Clarity: If the image edges appear blurry, ensure the projector is positioned as straight as possible to the screen. Use the manual focus wheel and digital keystone correction settings to achieve the best possible clarity across the entire image.

- Dust Filter: Regularly check and clean the removable dust filter located at the bottom of the projector to prevent dust accumulation and maintain image quality.
- Bluetooth Audio: The C6A Smart version supports Bluetooth audio output, allowing you to connect external Bluetooth speakers like a JBL PartyBox for enhanced sound.
- Firmware Updates: Keep an eye on the manufacturer's official channels for firmware updates for your C6A to ensure optimal performance and access to new features.
- Android Version Features: The smart version with Android OS allows direct app downloads (e.g., Disney+), online streaming, and screen mirroring. The basic version lacks these smart features.
- MEMC Technology: The MEMC (Motion Estimation, Motion Compensation) technology is designed to provide smoother video playback.
