Maintenance and Cleaning

Cleaning the Air Filter

The air filter prevents dust from accumulating on the surface of the optical elements inside the projector. Should the air filter become clogged with dust particles, it will reduce cooling fans’ effectiveness and may result in a buildup of internal heat and adversely affects the life of the projector. Clean the air filter by following the steps below.

1

Turn off the projector, and unplug the AC power cord

 

from the AC outlet.

2

Turn over the projector and remove the air filter by

 

pulling the latches upward.

3

Clean up the dust on the projector and around the air

 

vents.

4

Gently clean the filter by using a brush or blower.

 

WARNING: Do not wash the filter with water and

 

any other liquid matter. Otherwise the filter may

 

be damaged.

5

Reinstall the filter into the projector properly.

6

Reset the filter counter in the Setting Menu. See

 

“Resetting the Filter Counter” below.

CAUTION

Do not operate the projector with the air filter removed. Dust may accumulate on the optical elements degrading picture quality. Do not put anything into the air intake vents. Otherwise it may result in malfunction of the projector.

Air filter

Pull up the tab and remove.

Note:

•When cleaning the air filter, protect the infrared remote receiver with a soft cloth to avoid damaging it.

If the filter is heavily clogged and unable to clean, replace it with a new one. Consult your dealer for details.

RECOMMENDATION

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

When you use the projector under dusty or smoky conditions, dust may accumulate on the lens, LCD panels, or optical elements inside the projector degrading the quality of a projected image.

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