If you encounter issues with your projector, refer to the following common solutions:

• Remote Control Unresponsive: Ensure the remote has fresh batteries and is pointed directly at the projector's sensor. Some users have reported occasional latency; try holding down buttons for a moment or restarting the projector.
• Image Quality Issues (e.g., washed out, green artifacts): Verify all cables (HDMI, USB-C) are securely connected. Check the input source settings on the projector. If using a streaming device, ensure it supports the desired resolution (e.g., 4K).
• Safety Auto-Off Activating Unexpectedly: This feature detects objects near the lens. Ensure no obstructions are in the projection path. This feature can be deactivated in the projector's settings if it causes frequent interruptions.
• No Image/Signal: Confirm the correct input source is selected on the projector. Check the connection to your source device.
• Fan Noise: Some fan noise is normal during operation. Ensure the projector has adequate ventilation and is not placed in an enclosed space.
