6. Maintenance
6.1 Lens Cleaning
To maintain optimal image clarity, regularly clean the projector lens using the provided microfiber cloth. Avoid using abrasive materials or harsh chemicals.
6.2 Fan Filter Cleaning
The projector features a removable fan filter to prevent dust and debris from entering the internal components. Periodically remove and clean the filter to ensure proper airflow and prevent overheating.
7. Troubleshooting (FAQ)
- Image is blurry at the edges: Place the projector perpendicularly to the wall (no angle tilt). The auto focus and auto keystone correction function will make 95%+ area clear. For LCD projectors, it's normal that 10% of the edges are not as clear as the center.
- Remote is not functioning: Make sure you installed 2 AA batteries to the remote. Make sure to point the remote at the IR receiver directly.
- Fan noise is loud: The fan needs to run very fast to exhaust the inner hot air timely to prolong the lifespan of the projector. If possible, we suggest to mount the projector to the ceiling to reduce the affect of fan noise.
- Image is not bright: To enjoy the best viewing experience, we suggest using the projector in a dark environment.
- Is this a 4K projector? This is a native 1080P projector. It can display videos from 4K TV stick or 4K Chromecast at 1080P resolution, which is termed as 4K supported. It isn't a native 4K resolution projector. Native 4K projector is over $2000.
- Apps similar to Hulu and Disney+ when connected with smartphone: Due to copyright issues, when connected with smartphone, these apps can't be mirrored. We suggest using a TV stick or Windows PC to watch these apps.
