Cleaning procedure

#Turn off the MAIN POWER switch and disconnect the power cord plug from the wall outlet.

Turn off the MAIN POWER switch according to the procedure given in “Turning off the power” on page 23 before disconnecting the plug from the wall outlet.

$Gently turn the projector upside down.

NOTE:

BPlace the projector on top of a soft cloth so that it will not become scratched.

%Remove the air filter.

Put your fingernails under the air filter and pull the air filter out of the projector.

&Clean the air filter.

Use a vacuum cleaner to clean off any accumulated dust.

NOTE:

BBe careful not to let the air filter get sucked into the vacuum cleaner.

'Install the air filter.

NOTE:

BBe sure to install the air filter cover before using the projector. If the projector is used without the air filter cover installed, dust and other foreign particles will be drawn into the projector, and malfunctions will result.

BIf the dust cannot be removed by cleaning, it is time to replace the air filter. Please consult your dealer. Furthermore, if the lamp unit is being replaced, replace the air filter at this time also.
