Cleaning

- Exterior: Clean the exterior casing with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn marks, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by drying.
- Air Vents: Periodically check and clean the air vents to ensure proper airflow and prevent overheating. Use a soft brush or compressed air to remove dust.
Troubleshooting
No Image Displayed
- Ensure the projector is powered on and the power cord is securely connected.
- Verify that the correct input source is selected on the projector.
- Check the connection cable between the projector and the source device (e.g., HDMI cable).
- Confirm the source device is powered on and outputting a signal.
Image Distortion or Blurriness
- Adjust the focus ring on the projector until the image is sharp.
- Use the keystone correction feature to square the image if it appears trapezoidal.
- Ensure the projector is placed perpendicular to the screen for best results.
