Recommendation
Should the air filter become clogged with dust particles,
it will reduce the cooling fan's effectiveness and may
result in internal heat build up and short lamp life. We
recommend cleaning the air filter after the projection
lamp is replaced.
Refer to "Air Filter Cleaning".
Remark :
The upper display "Projector Counter" is not reset by
resetting Lamp Replace Counter.
