Cleaning The Lens; Cleaning The Projector; Cleaning And Replacing The Air Filter - Epson PowerLite 53c Product Information

Cleaning the Lens

Clean the lens whenever you notice dirt or dust on the surface.
❏ Use a canister of compressed air to remove dust.
❏ To remove dirt or smears on the lens, use lens-cleaning
paper. If necessary, moisten a soft cloth with lens cleaner and
gently wipe the lens surface.
Caution
Do not use glass cleaner to clean the lens.

Cleaning the Projector

Before you clean the case, first turn off the projector and
unplug the power cord.
❏ To remove dirt or dust, wipe the case with a soft, dry, lint-
free cloth.
❏ To remove stubborn dirt or stains, moisten a soft cloth with
water and a mild detergent. Then wipe the case.
❏ Do not use wax, alcohol, benzene, paint thinner, or other
chemical detergents. These can damage the case.

Cleaning and Replacing the Air Filter

Clean the air filter on the bottom of the projector after every
100 hours of use. If it is not cleaned periodically, it can
become clogged with dust, preventing proper ventilation. This
can cause overheating and damage the projector.
Note
When you get a replacement lamp for your projector, a new air
filter is included. You should replace the filter when you replace the
lamp.
To clean the air filter, follow these steps:
1. Turn off the projector, allow it to cool down, and unplug the
power cord.
2. Turn the projector upside-down.

3. To clean the filter, EPSON recommends using a small
vacuum cleaner designed for computers and other office
equipment. If you don't have one, gently clean the filter
using a very soft brush (such as an artist's camel-hair brush).
If the dirt is difficult to remove or if the filter is torn, replace
it.
4. If you need to replace the filter, lift the tab on the filter cover
and pull it upward to remove it.
5. Remove the filter.
6. Install the new filter as shown below.
7. Replace the filter cover by inserting the tabs and then
pressing down the other end until it clicks into place.
