Cleaning and replacing the air filter

Please check and clean the air filter periodically. When the indicators or a message prompts you to clean the air filter, comply with it as soon as possible. The air filter of this projector consists of a filter cover and a filter unit with two types of filter. If one or both of the filters are damaged or heavily soiled, replace the filter unit with a new one.

Request for a filter unit with the following type number from your dealer when purchasing a new unit.

The specified filter unit also comes with a replacement lamp for this projector. Please replace the filter unit as well when you replace the lamp.
