Warning:

Never use flammable air duster or other materials when cleaning the air-filter. Flammable substances may ignite causing fire or breakdown when the lamp is illuminated.

Before cleaning, be sure to turn off the main power switch and unplug the projector from the outlet.

Clean the filter frequently (at least once a month). When dust accumulates on the filter at the air inlet, the temperature inside the projector may rise abnormally high, causing damage to the internal parts and reducing the lifetime of the panel.

In case of any abnormality including an abnormal rise of the inside temperature, the projector may automatically turn off and go into the standby mode where the light source lamp is turned off in order to protect its internal parts.
