Initial Setup and Network Connection
Upon first power-on, the projector will guide you through the initial Android OS setup, including language selection and Wi-Fi network connection. A stable Wi-Fi connection is essential for accessing online content and apps.

Maintenance
Cleaning the Lens
Gently wipe the projector lens with a soft, lint-free cloth specifically designed for optical surfaces. Do not use abrasive cleaners or excessive force, as this can scratch the lens.
Ensuring Proper Ventilation
Keep the projector's ventilation grilles clear of obstructions to ensure proper airflow. Blocked vents can lead to overheating and affect performance and lifespan. Do not place the projector on soft surfaces like blankets that can block vents.
Storage
When not in use for extended periods, store the projector in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and excessive dust. Consider using the original packaging or a protective case.
Troubleshooting
This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your YABER L1 Projector.
- No Power:
Ensure the power adapter is securely connected to both the projector and a working power outlet. Try a different outlet. - No Image:
Check if the projector is powered on. Verify the input source is correctly selected (e.g., HDMI1, USB). Ensure the lens cap is removed. - Blurry Image:
Allow the auto-focus to adjust. If still blurry, check for smudges on the lens and clean it gently. Ensure the projection surface is flat. - No Sound:
Check the volume level on the projector and any connected external audio devices. If using an external device (e.g., HDMI source), ensure its audio output is enabled. If using Bluetooth, ensure it's correctly paired. - Wi-Fi Connection Issues:
