Setting up the Projector  
The projector is quick and easy to setup. You can project the image onto most flat  
surfaces. This section covers positioning the projector, focusing the image, and  
adjusting the brightness and contrast settings.  
Choosing a surface  
The best surface for the image is a flat, white surface. In most cases, lightly textured  
walls do not affect the image quality. Alternatively, a color wall will change the hue of  
the image. You can either point the projector at a wall or projector screen or a ceiling.  
Placing the projector  
Place the projector on a stable surface. You can place the projector on its foot or on the  
rear cover. You can even attach the projector to a tripod.

Troubleshooting  
The Power Adapter and Charging the Battery  
I do not see where to insert the outlet clip into the power adapter.  
There is a blank clip inserted into the power adapter when it is shipped. Remove  
the blank clip which covers the power adapter contacts. Now install an outlet clip.  
I do not see an amber light when I plug the power adapter into the projector.  
Make sure the power outlet is working.  
Make sure the connector from the power adapter is plugged into the "DC In" on  
the projector and not the headphone jack.  
When fully charged, the LED indicator will flash green.  
Installing the HDMI or MHL cable into the Projector  
The HDMI or MHL cable will not insert into the projector.  
There may be a dust cap on the end of the connector. Remove it before inserting  
connector into the projector.  
When you insert the connector, make sure the connector orientated correctly.  
The cover hits the cable when I close the cover.

There is a cutout on the bottom corner of the cover for the cable to exit. Route the  
cable down and to the right then close the cover.  
The cover does not close properly.  
There is tab on the bottom corner of the cover. Make sure the tab inserts into the  
groove on the projector and the rest of the cover snaps into place.  
Turning the Projector On or Off  
The projector will not turn on.  
The battery is not charged. Plug the power adapter into the projector and try again.  
The projector button panel is on but the projector is not projecting an image.  
The video source (such as the DVD Player) is outputting a black image. First, try  
disconnecting the HDMI video cable. Do you see the 3M™ logo screen? If not, try  
turning off the projector and turning it on again. If you still do not see a 3M Logo  
screen while the status indicator is green, contact 3M for additional support.  
The Lamp is off. Press the Lamp ON/Off button on the remote control.  
The remote control will not turn on the projector.  
When the projector is new and never been turned on, you must use the power  
button on the projector. Now you can turn on the projector by pressing the power  
button on the projector or the remote control.

The status indicator on the projector flashes red.  
The projector's battery needs to be charged.  
Setting Up the Projector  
The projector falls over when I place it on its rear cover.  
The cover may not be seated properly. There is a tongue on the bottom corner of  
the cover. Insert the tongue into the groove on the projector and the rest of the  
cover will snap into place.  
The image is tinted or discolored.  
The wall or surface you're projecting onto is colored. Try projecting onto a white  
wall or surface.  
The lens may be dirty. Use a dry cotton swab to clean it off.  
Focusing the Image  
The image is blurry.  
Use the focus wheel on the side of the projector (next to the lens) to sharpen the  
image.  
Reduce the input resolution. The native resolution of projector is 480p. Therefore,  
resolutions greater that 720p may appear blurry.  
If you are closer to the projected image than the projector, you might be seeing the  
individual pixels that make up the image. Reduce the size of the image or move  
away from the image.  
The image is too dim.  
Reduce the image size and/ or decrease (darken) the room lighting.
