Getting Started

1. Placement

Place the device on a stable, flat surface, pointing it squarely towards the projection surface. For best results, the projection surface should be white and flat. The distance between the device and the projection surface should be a minimum of 31 inches (0.8 meters) and a maximum of 125 inches (3.18 meters) to achieve a projection image size from 30 to 120 inches.

It is unnecessary to tilt the projector towards the projection surface; the built-in keystone correction can adjust the projection image. The distance to the projection surface determines the image size. For optimal results, position the projector between 63 and 104 inches away. The projector can also be mounted on the ceiling.

2. Prepare the Remote Control

The remote control requires two AAA batteries. For first-time use, slide open the battery compartment and install the batteries, ensuring correct polarity (+/-). To replace batteries, unlock and open the compartment, insert new batteries with correct polarity, and then close and lock the compartment.
