Replacing The Filter; Resetting The Filter Counter - Sanyo PLC-WL2503 Owner's Manual

Filter prevents dust from accumulating on the optical elements inside the projector. Should the Filter become
clogged with dust particles, it will reduce cooling fans' effectiveness and may result in internal heat buildup
and adversely affect the life of the projector. If a "Filter warning" icon appears on the screen, replace the Filter
immediately. Replace the filter by following the steps below.
1
Turn off the projector, and unplug the AC power cord
from the AC outlet.
2
First, clean up the dust on the projector and around the
air vents.
3
Press and hold any part of the red circle, and then
press ◄ leftwards on the filter cover to release the
latch and open the filter cover.
4
Pull out the filter. When taking out the filter, put your
fingers on the filter tab and then pull.
5
Insert the new filter completely and replace the
filter cover. Ensure that the area with "TOP" mark is
in an upward direction.
6
Connect the AC power cord to the projector and turn
on the projector.
7
Reset the filter counter.
CAUTION
Do not operate the projector with the filter removed.
Dust may accumulate on the optical elements
degrading picture quality.
Do not put anything into the air vents. Doing so may
result in malfunction of the projector.
Do not wash the filter with water or any other liquid
matter. Otherwise the filter may be damaged.
RECOMMENDATION

environments may cause poor image quality .
When using the projector under dusty or smoky conditions,
dust may accumulate on a lens, LCD panels, or optical
