Cleaning The Air Filters And Vents; Replacing The Lamp And Air Filters - Epson PowerLite 7900p Product Information

Cleaning the Air Filters and Vents

Clean the air filters and air intake vents after every 100 hours
of use. If they are not cleaned periodically, they can become
clogged with dust, preventing proper ventilation. This can
cause overheating and damage the projector.
Follow these steps:
1. Turn off the projector and unplug the power cord.
2. To clean the intake vents, Epson recommends using a small
vacuum cleaner designed for computers and other office
equipment. If you don't have one, gently clean the vents
with a soft brush (such as an artist's paintbrush).
3. Gently turn the projector over and remove the filters from
the side and bottom of the projector. Then use a small
vacuum cleaner or soft brush to clean the two filters. Slide
the filters back into place when you're done.
