  (Settings > Display & Sounds > Audio > Dolby Digital Output > and then turn Dolby Digital (OFF))

  Place the projector on a flat surface horizontally or vertically. An inclination of any angle may result in blurry displays or uneven colors. * Darker environment suggested achieving the best projecting performance.
• The projecting wall or screen is clean white if possible.

How should I do if there are small dots on display?

• It may be caused during installing or shipping, please contact customer service to get the video about how to clean it.

Why do some lag/ jerky appear when playing video or play games?

  Please change the 1080p/60fps to 1080p/30fps.
