2. Setup
2.1 Unboxing and Initial Inspection
Carefully remove all components from the packaging. Verify that all accessories are present and that the projector is free from any visible damage. Retain the packaging for future transport or storage.
2.2 Placement and Projection
Position the projector on a stable, flat surface or mount it to the ceiling. Ensure adequate ventilation around the unit. The optimal projection distance ranges from 6.5 to 21.8 feet, yielding an image size of 50 to 200 inches. Adjust the projector's position to achieve the desired screen size and focus.
2.3 Keystone Correction
If the projected image appears trapezoidal, use the keystone correction feature to square the image. The projector supports vertical keystone correction of ±15 degrees. Some models may offer 4-point keystone correction for more precise adjustments, especially for off-axis projection.
2.4 Power Connection
Connect the power cable to the projector's power input and then to a standard AC 100-240V / 50-60Hz electrical outlet.
