Problem Solving

Has condensation formed on the lens?

If the projector is suddenly taken from a cold environment to a warm environment or if sudden ambient temperature changes occur, condensation may form on the surface of the lens, and this may cause the images to appear fuzzy. Set the projector up in the room approximately one hour before it is to be used. If condensation forms on the lens, turn the power off and wait for the condensation to disappear.
