Maintenance and Cleaning

Cleaning the Air Filters

Air filters prevent dust from accumulating on the surface of the optical elements inside the projector. Should the air filters become clogged with dust particles, it will reduce cooling fans’ effectiveness and may result in internal heat build up and adversely affect the life of the projector. Clean the air filters following the steps below.

1

Turn off the projector, and disconnect the AC power cord from

 

the AC outlet.

2

Turn the projector upside down and remove the air filters by

 

pulling the latches upward.

3

Clean the air filters with a brush or rinse them softly.

4

When cleaning the air filters by rinsing, dry them well. Replace

 

the air filters properly. Make sure that the air filters are fully

inserted.

CAUTION

Do not operate the projector with the air filters removed. Dust may accumulate on the LCD panel and the projection mirror degrading picture quality.

Do not put small parts into the air intake vents. It may result in malfunction of the projector.

RECOMMENDATION

We recommend avoiding dusty/smoky environments when operating the projector. Usage in these environments may cause poor image quality.

When using under dusty or smoky conditions, dust may accumulate on a lens, LCD panels, or optical elements inside the projector. This condition may degrade the quality of a projected image.

When the above symptoms are noticed, contact your authorized dealer or service station for proper cleaning.

Cleaning the Projection Lens

Follow these steps to clean the projection lens.

1

Disconnect the AC power cord before cleaning.

2

Softly wipe the projection lens with a cleaning cloth that con-

 

tains a small amount of non-abrasive camera lens cleaner, or use

 

lens cleaning paper or a commercially available air blower to

 

clean the lens. Avoid using an excessive amount of cleaner.

 

Abrasive cleaners, solvents, or other harsh chemicals might

 

scratch the surface.

3

When the projector is not in use, replace the lens cover.

Cleaning the Projector Cabinet

Follow these steps to clean the projector cabinet.

1

Disconnect the AC power cord before cleaning.

2

Softly wipe the projector body with a soft, dry cleaning cloth.

 

When it is heavily soiled, use a small amount of mild detergent

 

and finish with a soft, dry cleaning cloth. Avoid using an

 

excessive amount of cleaner. Abrasive cleaners, solvents, or

 

other harsh chemicals might scratch the surface.

3

When the projector is not in use, put the projector in the carry-

 

ing case to protect it from dust and scratches.
