• Do not allow children or infants to stay in areas where they can look at the projector

lens from any angle.

• Do not put the projector in a damp, humid environment.

Basic Operation Tips

Read the manual carefully before use Operational mistakes may cause damage by electrocution or fire. Follow the instructions listed below to use and maintain the projector.

Read the manual Please read the manual carefully and use the projector according to the instructions in it. This will preserve the life of the unit.

Cleaning Projector Please make sure that the electric plug of the projector has been disconnected from the power supply before cleaning; use a damp cloth to wipe the unit down. It is best to not use any chemical cleaners at all on the projector.

Accessories All of the accessories have been packed separately in the box to avoid any possible damage to the projector. The unit comes with all accessories needed to be fully functional.

Working Environment The projector works best in a non-humid or too dry environment.

Set Up and Functionality The projector needs to be set up on a level, horizontal plane and position.

Ventilation Good ventilation provides essential conditions for the projector's continuous running. Please prevent dust from covering the filter, as the projector may go into high temperature protection mode due to the temperatures inside. Extreme heat may shorten the service life and cause potential issues. For ideal maintenance, the filter should be cleaned monthly.

Electricity Source The power on the unit is rated at 90~240V AC.

Power Cable Please inspect the power cable before use to make sure it is functional.

Abnormal Noises If you hear abnormal noises coming from the projector, please unplug the power cable.

Maintenance Do not open or attempt to repair the projector yourself due to high voltage that remains stored inside the unit, even when it is unplugged.

Keep Unit Away From Heat Emitting Devices Please ensure the projector is a safe distance from other heat emitting devices.

Prevention

• To improve the service life of the projector, please do not use the projector in a dusty or humid environment.

• Do not expose the projector to direct sunlight.

• The ideal working temperature for the projector is 0°C ~ 35°C

• The appropriate storage temperature for the projector is -20°C ~ 50°C

• Do not block the ventilation window – the projector will shut down automatically if the

internal temperature gets too high. Regular cleaning is important for the projector. Do not let the filter build up dust.

Start Up/Shutting Down the Projector

How to Adjust the Trapezoidal Image

During the first use of the projector, the image may be blurry or difficult to see. This will be due to the lack of focus with the lens and the trapezoid correction. Please follow these steps to adjust the focus:

Adjusting Focus

Rotate the lens clockwise or anti-clockwise, observing the image on the screen. Keep rotating the lens until the image becomes clear.

NOTE: if bringing the projector from a cold environment into a warm environment, there may be moisture on the lens. Please ensure the moisture is removed completely before starting the projector up again.

Trapezoidal Correction

If the projected image is in a trapezoidal shape, it can be resolved by trapezoid correction. If the screen or projector is not level horizontally, the image may be in a trapezoidal shape. Please try to adjust the angle of the projector as it points at the screen to resolve this issue.

If the trapezoid correction fails to resolve the image shape, please reduce the vertical difference in height between the projector and the center of the screen.
