5.3 Image Adjustment

6. Maintenance
6.1 Cleaning the Lens
Use a soft, lint-free cloth specifically designed for optical lenses to gently wipe the projector lens. Do not use abrasive cleaners or excessive force, as this can scratch the lens.
6.2 Cleaning the Projector Body
Wipe the exterior of the projector with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn dirt, a slightly damp cloth can be used, but ensure no liquid enters the ventilation openings.
6.3 Ventilation
Regularly check and clean the ventilation openings to ensure proper airflow. Blocked vents can lead to overheating and reduce the lifespan of the projector. The projector features a hyperfine air cooling technology to minimize noise while maintaining optimal temperature.
