5.1 Deploying the Screen

5.2 Retracting the Screen

1. Pull the screen down slightly further than its current locked position.
2. Release the screen slowly and carefully. The auto-locking mechanism will disengage, and the screen will retract smoothly into its housing.

6.1 Cleaning the Screen Surface

The premium PVC material of the screen is easy to clean:

• Use a soft, damp cloth with plain water to gently wipe the screen surface.

6.2 General Care

• Regularly inspect the mounting hardware to ensure it remains secure.
• Keep the screen retracted when not in use to protect the surface from dust and damage.
• Avoid placing objects on top of the screen housing.

7. Troubleshooting

This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your projector screen.

7.1 Screen Does Not Lock at Desired Height

• Cause: The screen was not released correctly for the auto-locking mechanism to engage.
• Solution: Pull the screen down slightly, then release it gently and slowly. The mechanism requires a smooth release to engage properly.

7.2 Screen Does Not Retract Smoothly or Jams

• Cause: The screen might have been pulled unevenly, or there might be minor debris in the retraction mechanism.
• Solution: Pull the screen down fully, then release it slowly and evenly. Ensure there are no obstructions around the screen housing. If the issue persists, gently guide the screen during retraction. Avoid forcing the screen.

7.3 Wavy or Wrinkled Screen Surface

• Cause: This can occur if the screen has been stored improperly or exposed to extreme temperature changes.
• Solution: Allow the screen to hang fully extended for a period in a stable room temperature environment. Minor waves often flatten out over time with regular use. Ensure the screen is always retracted evenly.
