Power Save is not enabled by default. To turn it off or on, go to Main > Settings > System. In the System menu, clear the Power Save checkbox to turn it off, or select it to turn it on.

The image appears to be stretched vertically or horizontally.

The Aspect Ratio is set to 16:9 instead of Native or 4:3, which is required for computer images. To change the aspect ratio, press the Menu button on the keypad, then go to Main > Picture > Aspect Ratio. Select Native or 4:3.

The default setting is Native, which allows the projector to adjust to incoming signals automatically. Setting the aspect ratio at 4:3 or 16:9 forces all incoming images to that ratio.

I am playing a DVD on my laptop, but the projector displays a blank screen.

If the DVD plays satisfactorily on your laptop, you should be able watch it with the projector. However, some laptops do not have the resources to play the movie on both its own screen and through the projector. When this happens, you will probably just see a blank screen. To solve this issue, press and hold the FN key on the laptop, then press the appropriate function key (F1, F2, F3, etc.). The function key should be labeled “LCD/CRT” or will have a monitor icon on it. You may need to press the function key a couple times. When you do this, you cycle through three settings: the image only on the laptop, the image on both the laptop and projector, and the image only on the projector. You want to set it so the movie appears only on the screen.

The LED on the projector keypad has changed. No image is projected. The lamp doesn't light. What is wrong?

The projector has a status and alarm LED adjacent to the keypad. The LED shines green, red or orange, depending on the state of the projector. The LEDs can help you troubleshoot projector problems.
