Cleaning and Replacing the Air Filter
Regular filter maintenance is important to maintaining your projector. Your Epson projector
is designed with an easily accessible, user-replaceable filter to protect your projector and make
regular maintenance simple. Filter maintenance intervals will depend on the environment.
If regular maintenance is not performed, your Epson projector will notify you when the
temperature inside the projector has a reached a high level. Do not wait until this warning
appears to maintain your projector filter as prolonged exposure to high temperatures may
reduce the life of your projector or lamp. See page 77 for more information.
Damage due to the failure to properly maintain the projector or its filter may not be covered
by the projector or lamp Limited Warranties.
