Maintenance and Cleaning

Cleaning the Air Filters

The air filters prevent dust from accumulating on the surface of the optical elements inside the projector. Should the air filters become clogged with dust particles, they will reduce cooling fan’s effectiveness and may result in a buildup of internal heat and adversely affect the life of the projector. Clean the air filters by following the steps below.

Pull out the air filters.

 

When taking out the Air Filter 2, put your finger on the air

 

filter’s tab and pull.

3

Remove dust and dirt with a soft brush or a vacuum cleaner.

 

Be careful not to damage the air filters and do not clean

 

them with water.

 

When the Air Filter 1 gets dusty and dirty, replace it with a

 

new one. For ordering the replacement filter, contact your

 

sales dealer.

Put the air filters back into the position and close the filter

 

covers. Do not push the delicate filter part. Make sure that

the air filters are properly and fully inserted.
