• No Sound: Check the projector's volume settings. If using external speakers, ensure they are properly connected and powered.
• Overheating/Loud Fan Noise: Ensure ventilation openings are not blocked. Operate the projector in a well-ventilated area. Some fan noise is normal during operation.
• Smartphone Connection Issues: For wired connections, ensure you are using the correct adapter cable (iPhone to HDMI for iOS, MHL cable for Android).
• Pixelated Text/Image: The native resolution of 320x240 pixels means text and fine details may appear pixelated, especially when enlarged. This projector is designed for general entertainment, not detailed presentations.
