„Press the Source button one or more times to select another active input source.

„Be sure the external source is turned on and connected.

„For a computer connection, ensure your notebook computer’s external video port is

turned on. Refer to the computer manual. If the image is out of focus:

„Be sure the lens cover is open.

„While displaying the on-screen menu, adjust the focus ring. (The image size should not change; if it does, you are adjusting the zoom, not the focus.)

„Check the projection lens to see if it needs cleaning.

If the image is flickering or unstable for a computer connection:

„Press the Resync button on the control panel or the Auto button on the remote control.

„Press the Menu button, go to Computer Image and adjust Frequency or

Remote control problems

If the remote control does not operate:

„Be sure nothing is blocking the remote control receiver on the front or back of the projector. Use the remote control within the effective range.

„Aim the remote control at the screen or at the front or back of the projector.

„Move the remote control so it is more directly in front of or behind the projector and not as far to the side.
