Cleaning the Air Filter

When the following message is displayed and the filter indicator flashes,
clean the air filter and the air intake vent.
"Time to clean the air filter. Clean or replace the air filter."
"The projector is overheating. Make sure nothing is blocking the air vent,
and clean or replace the air filter."
"The air filter is clogged. Clean or replace the air filter."
Attention
• If dust collects on the air filter, it can cause the internal temperature of the
projector to rise, and this can lead to problems with operation and shorten
the optical engine's service life. Clean the air filter immediately when the
message is displayed.
• Do not rinse the air filter in water. Do not use detergents or solvents.
• When using a brush for cleaning, use one with long soft bristles, and brush it
lightly. If it is brushed too strongly, dust will be ground into the air filter and
cannot be removed.
Cleaning the air filter
The air filter can be replaced even when the projector is suspended from a
ceiling.
