Push both sides of the lens cover to take off.
Notes
• Select a room that can be darkened.
• When the projector is moved from a cold location to a warm location, or when the ambient temperature in the projection room has risen
suddenly, moisture may condense on the lens or the mirror to blur the projected pictures. In such a case, leave the projector for an adequate time
(1 to 2 hours, depending on the room’s condition) before using it so it adjusts to the ambient temperature.
• If the screen is exposed to direct sunlight or other strong light, the projected picture becomes too faint to see. Shut out the light with curtains or
other means.
• If the screen and the projector are not installed properly, the projected picture may be distorted.
