- Audio Output (Headphone Out): Connect external speakers or headphones to this 3.5mm jack for enhanced audio.
3. Placement and Focus
- Place the projector on a stable, flat surface. Ensure adequate ventilation around the projector.
- Position the projector at a distance between 1.15 meters and 3.35 meters from the projection surface to achieve a screen size between 1.02 meters and 3.045 meters.

Insert two AAA batteries (not included) into the remote control. The remote allows for convenient control of various projector functions, including power, input selection, volume, and menu navigation.
3. Image Adjustment
- Keystone Correction: If the projected image appears trapezoidal, use the keystone correction function (accessible via the remote or on-screen menu) to adjust the image vertically and horizontally until it is rectangular.
