Yes, the projector has a USB-A port that supports playback of video, photo, and audio files. Insert the USB drive and navigate using the remote to select the file.

What is the maximum projection size?

The projector can project an image up to 100 inches diagonally. For best brightness, use a screen size between 30 and 80 inches in low ambient light.

How do I clean the lens?

Use a soft, lint-free cloth gently to wipe the lens. Do not use any liquid cleaners or abrasive materials. Ensure the projector is off and cool before cleaning.

Charging the Battery

The rechargeable battery in 3M Mobile Projector MP300 gives you up to three hours of battery life while in ECO lamp mode. When the battery needs to be charged, the status indicator LED starts flashing red. The battery should be fully charged before using the projector for the first time.

Charge the battery:

2 Connect the power adapter to the projector's DC input.
3 Connect the other end of the power adapter to the electrical outlet.
4 The status indicator will change to amber while the battery is charging.
5 Allow three hours to fully charge the battery. When charging is complete, the status indicator will flash green.

Battery Charging Notes:

• If the projector power is off, allow three hours for the battery to fully recharge. If the projector power is on, the battery will take longer to charge.
• The battery has a lifespan and ages every time it is fully charged and discharged. The battery will gradually lose charge capacity as it ages.

Battery Maintenance Tips:

• Charge and discharge the battery by turning on the projector at least once a month.
• When storing the projector for more than a month, store it at 50% charge.
• The battery is at 50% charge when half of the battery icon is white.

- Do not store the projector when it is fully discharged. It will lose the ability to charge.

Turning on and off the Projector

Press the power button on the projector to turn on the projector. After the projector is powered on for the first time, you use the power button the projector or remote control to turn the projector on and off.

MHL-enabled device such as a smartphone receives power from the projector. You can turn off the projector's lamp without turning off the MHL-enabled device. The Lamp On and Off button is on the remote control.

Turning the Projector On: Press the power button on the projector or remote control.

Note: Some devices that receive their power from the projector and might take 30 seconds or more to become ready to use.

Turning the Projector Off: Press and hold the power button until the projector turns off.

Turning the Lamp On and Off: You can turn the projector's lamp off without turning the projector off by pressing the lamp button on the remote control. The projector lamp will turn off immediately while the cooling fans continue to run.

While the projector's lamp is off, the status indicator remains green. This tells you that the lamp is off but the projector is still on. Press Lamp On/Off button on the remote again and the lamp will turn on.

Important Note: Even though the lamp is off, the projector continues to use a power and generate heat. The projector will turn off if it overheats or looses battery power. You prevent the projector from turn off by keeping the air vents clear and plugging it into the power adapter.

Status Indicator lights

The status indicator light provides information about the projector's power, battery, and error status.

Status Indicator Light Meaning

Solid amber The projector is charging.

Solid green The projector is on.

Flashing green The projector is finished charging.

Flashing amber The projector has overheated.

Flashing red The battery power is low.

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.

Illustration of two hands holding a device with a blue upward arrow indicating motion (no text or symbols)

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.

Illustration of a computer monitor with cable being inserted, showing internal components and cable routing (no text or symbols)

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^TM 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 than 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.

The image seems bright enough but there are no details in the dark shadows.

- Open the projector menu and increase brightness setting and then decrease the contrast slightly.

The image seems bright enough but there are no details in the highlights.

- Open the projector menu and decrease contrast.

Adjusting the Volume

There is no audio coming out of the speaker

• Turn up the volume or turn off mute.
• Turn up the volume on the external speakers.
• There may be a moment of silence in the show you are watching.

Using the Remote Control

The remote control does not work.

- Remove the plastic film that is in-between the battery and the remote control.

Line drawing of a rectangular electronic device with a handle and internal components (no text or symbols)

• Replace the battery. The battery size is a CR 2025.
