The DIGITECH AP4016 projector is compatible with devices with HDMI input function, such as laptops, DVD players, Blu-ray players, Chromecast, TV Stick, etc. An HDMI cable is not included.

The projector is equipped with 2 HDMI input ports:

1. If you connect your device to the projector via the “HDMI1” port, please choose “HDMI 1” as the input source.

2. If you connect via the “HDMI 2” port, please choose “HDMI 2” as the input source.

Connect the projector’s AV interface with an AV cable (not included) to your AV device, such as a portable DVD player. Select AV as the input source.

The AV cable connections are typically color-coded:

• Video Cable: YELLOW

• Audio Left Channel: WHITE

• Audio Right Channel: RED

The DIGITECH AP4016 projector can connect to headphones and to a wired audio system using a 3.5mm jack (cable not included). Simply plug your audio device into the Audio Out port.

Bluetooth On/Off

Bluetooth is OFF by default when the projector first powers ON. To turn it on, go to the Options menu and select Bluetooth.

Pairing to a Bluetooth Wireless Speaker

Turn on Bluetooth. The projector will begin searching for a nearby Bluetooth device. Choose one from the list to connect successfully. When successfully connected, the projector will display the Bluetooth name on the top right portion of the Main Menu screen, and audio will be heard through the Bluetooth receiver.

Attention

• The Bluetooth function only supports audio devices. Smartphones, tablets, or computers cannot connect to the projector via Bluetooth.

About automatically connecting

• After the initial pairing, the device will keep the pairing status as long as Bluetooth functions for both devices are opened. To ensure that you can hear from the projector next time, it is suggested to turn off the Bluetooth function before turning off the projector.

When you try to connect a new Bluetooth speaker

• Please turn off the previous speaker/headphone and re-search for your new Bluetooth device for connecting.

Please be sure that the AC power cable is plugged in tightly, and press the power switch on the projector’s panel or use the remote controller to turn it on.

1. Please make sure your device is connected to the projector correctly.

2. Check that the lens cover has been removed.

3. Check if the input signal source is correct, and then switch into projection mode. Wait for a while and operate it again.

4. Please make sure that the video source is equal to or under 1080P.

5. If it is still not working, please contact support for further assistance.

1. Leave the projector to cool for a few moments.

2. Once cooled, check if anything is blocking the ventilation vents.

3. Turn on the projector.

If the issue persists, please contact support.

If you connect to your laptop via an HDMI adapter, the audio cable of the adapter needs to be plugged into the audio output port from your laptop to the projector using a 3.5mm audio jack.

We recommend using the projector in a relatively dark environment to bring out the best image brightness. This project is designed for Home Entertainment and is not recommended for PowerPoint or other business presentations.

Try using a vacuum cleaner to clean the lens. If cleaning does not resolve the issue, please contact your support provider for further assistance.

The recommended projection distance is 3-9ft. Please adjust the Keystone correction to get a rectangular image first, then adjust the Focus to get a clear image. The optimal focus is obtained when the pixels are clearly visible. If the projection size is too large, the focus near the screen edges may be less sharp than at the screen center.

The projector noise comes from the fan of its cooling system. The projector generates heat during operation as the light bulb produces strong light to make a bright image. It is normal for the projector to make a loud noise. A brighter image results in a louder sound. You can place the projector far from where you are, or you can connect a louder speaker to the projector to cover up the noise.

Yes. The path is: Set up (Click “Source”) -> Picture -> Picture Mode (Choose “User”) -> Adjust via remote control. For non-professionals, we recommend using the default value.

Ideal for dark viewing environments for optimal performance. Please note: Projector brightness is measured in ANSI lumens. Your viewing environment is the deciding factor on how many lumens your projector needs.
