Ensure the power cable is securely connected to both the projector and the power outlet. Check if the power outlet is working by testing another device. If the projector still doesn't turn on, try resetting it by unplugging it for a few minutes and then plugging it back in.

Why is my BenQ MS513P projector displaying a distorted image?

Distorted images can result from incorrect aspect ratio settings or improper positioning. Check the projector's aspect ratio settings and adjust them according to your source. Ensure the projector is aligned correctly with the screen. Use the Keystone adjustment feature to correct any trapezoidal distortion.

What maintenance is required for the BenQ MS513P projector's lamp?

Regularly check the lamp usage hours via the projector's menu. Clean the air filters periodically to prevent overheating, which can shorten lamp life. Replace the lamp when it reaches its end of life, as indicated by the on-screen message or decreased brightness.

How can I improve the image quality on my BenQ MS513P projector?
