Cleaning the Projector

1 Turn off the projector and disconnect power and other cables.
2 Use a soft cloth, such as the 3M
off dust. If the dust is difficult to remove, dampen the cloth with clean water
and then wipe the projector clean. Then use a clean cloth to dry the projector.
Important Note: Do not use cleaning chemicals or solvents to clean the
projector. Cleaning chemicals and solvents may cause the plastic parts to
discolor.

Troubleshooting

The projector will not turn on.
• The battery is not properly installed, or the power adapter is not connected to
the projector and a working wall outlet. Test the electrical outlet by plugging
another electrical device (like a radio) into the wall outlet to confirm that the
wall outlet works.
• The battery is installed in the wrong orientation. See "Install Battery" on page
11.
• Attempt to remove and replace the battery.
• Hold down the power button until the projector powers up.
The status indicator is flashing red when the power button is held down.
• The battery needs to be charged or reinstalled. See "Charge the Battery" on
page 13.
The image is not visible or is very dim.
• The 3M 180 projector is a battery-operated device and requires controlled
lighting conditions. The image may appear very dim in brightly lit rooms.
• Make sure the status indicator is green. This indicates that the projector is
powered on and projecting an image.
• Project the image onto a flat, white surface.
• Decrease the light on the surface where the image is being projected.
• Decrease the size of the image.
• When there is nothing connected to the projector, it will project the home
screen.
The projector is displaying a question mark.
• The projector does not support the video or computer input signal. Switch to
a signal that the projector supports. See "Supported Computer Signals" on
page 44.
A computer is connected to the projector but the projector will not display
the computer's image.
• Unplug the VGA-audio cable from the projector and the home screen will
display.
