an extension cable, the image quality may be reduced.
■
Keep your computer and video cables away from the power cord
as much as possible to prevent interference.

The video signal may be split between the computer and the
projector. If you notice a decline in the projected image quality
when the image is displayed simultaneously on your laptop and
through the projector, turn off the laptop’s LCD display.
The image is blurry.

There may be dirt or smears on the lens. Clean the lens as
described on page 90.

Auto
button (on
