| Problem | Possible Cause / Solution |
|---|---|
| No image projected | Ensure the power adapter is securely connected. Check the input source selection (HDMI, USB). Verify the connected device is powered on and outputting a signal. |
| Image is blurry | Adjust the manual focus ring on the projector lens until the image is clear. Ensure the projection distance is within the recommended range. |
| Image is distorted (not rectangular) | The projector features auto vertical keystone correction. Ensure the projector is placed on a relatively level surface. If manual adjustment is needed, check the settings menu. |
