Maintenance and Cleanin�
Cleanin� the Air Filters
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 fans' 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.
1 Turn off the projector, and unplug the AC power cord
from the AC outlet.
2 Turn over the projector and remove the air filters by
pulling the latches upward.
3 Clean the air filters with a brush or rinse them softly.
When rinsing the air filters, dry them well.
4 Replace the air filters properly. Make sure that the air
filters are fully inserted.
CAUTION
Do not operate the projector with the air filters
removed. Dust may accumulate on the optical
elements degrading picture quality. Do not put
anything into the air intake vents. Otherwise it may
result in malfunction of the projector.
RECOMMENDATION
We recommend avoidin� dusty/smoky environments
when you operate the projector . Usa�e in these
environments may cause poor ima�e quality .
When you use the projector under dusty or smoky
conditions, dust may accumulate on the lens, LCD panels,
or optical elements inside the projector degrading the
quality of a projected image.
When the symptoms above are noticed, contact your
authorized dealer or service station for proper cleaning.
