Cleaning the Projector and the Air Filter
Clean the projector frequently to prevent dust from settling on the surface.
A dirty lens may ruin the quality of the projected image.
Wipe the projector’s main unit softly with a soft cloth.
If the projector is heavily soiled, soak the cloth in water with a small amount of 
detergent in it, squeeze the cloth thoroughly, and then wipe the projector with it. 
After cleaning, wipe the projector with a dry cloth.
Request Internal Cleaning Regularly
Dust that accumulates over long periods without cleaning may eventually cause fire 
or electric shock. Once a year, request internal cleaning from the Canon Customer 
Support Center. (Note that a fee is charged.) Cleaning before damp, rainy seasons 
is especially effective.
Before cleaning the projector, always turn it off, unplug it after the 
cooling fan stops, and wait at least one hour. Otherwise, you may get 
burned because the main unit is very hot immediately after the 
projector is turned off. 
• Never use volatile cleaning liquid or benzine, as 
these may damage the finish of the projector.
• When using a chemical dust cloth, make sure to 
read the instructions thoroughly.
• When cleaning the projector’s lens, use a 
commonly available air blower or lens cleaning 
paper. The lens surface is easily damaged, so do 
not use a hard cloth or tissues.

Cleaning the Air Filter
The air filter protects the lens and mirror inside the projector from dust and dirt. 
Should the air filter become clogged with dust, the projector may be damaged since 
it will block the air flow into the projector and raise the internal temperature of the 
projector. The following screen is displayed when turning on the projector if the air 
filter needs to be cleaned. Clean the air filter if it is displayed.
•Turn the power of the projector off and pull out the power plug.
•Hook your finger around the air filter handle on the front of the projector and 
remove the air filter. Use a vacuum cleaner to clean off the dust.
•If the air filter cleaning screen is displayed when turning on the projector after 
cleaning the air filter, select [Yes] and press the OK button. 
The air filter counter is 
reset, and the message is no longer displayed.
•This screen is not displayed when [Air filter warning display] is set to [Off]. (P106) 
Reset the air filter counter manually. (P117)
• Only the [ ], [ ], OK and POWER buttons are 
available while this screen is displayed. (When you 
press the POWER button, the “Push POWER button 
again to turn off power.” message appears.)
• When this screen has disappeared after being 
displayed for 10 seconds, all buttons become operable.
Do not rinse the air filter in water. This may damage the air filter and projector.

This projector uses the following lamps.
Lamp part no.: RS-LP09
Contact the Canon Customer Support Center when purchasing a replacement 
lamp.
Precautions when replacing lamps that stop working
If the illumination suddenly stops when the projector is in use or after 
you turn it on, the lamp may be broken. In this case, never attempt to 
replace the lamp by yourself. Always request service from the Canon 
Customer Support Center. Additionally, with ceiling-mounted 
projectors, the lamp may fall out when you open the lamp cover or 
while you are attempting to replace it. During replacement, stand to the 
side of the lamp cover, not directly under it. If the lamp breaks and any 
glass shards or other pieces get in your eyes or mouth, consult a 
doctor immediately.
Before replacing the lamp, always turn off the projector, unplug it after 
the cooling fan stops, and wait at least one hour. Do not touch the 
lamp immediately after turning the projector off. It is very hot initially 
and poses a risk of burns.
• Be sure to use the specified lamp.
• Contact the Canon Customer Support Center for further information. 
This can also be purchased from the Canon website.
• Do not touch the inner glass surface when you replace the lamp. 
Doing so may cause deterioration to the projector’s performance.
• Handle lamps with care. Impact or abrasion may cause lamps to 
rupture while they are in use. If a lamp ruptures, contact the Canon 
Customer Support Center and follow the instructions in 
“Precautions when replacing lamps that stop working” (P15).
• When replacing the lamp, do not remove any screws other than 
those specified.

Installing / Removing the Lens Unit
■Installing the Lens Unit
1Use a Phillips-head screwdriver and loosen the lamp cover screw, then 
open the lamp cover.
The lamp cover screw is attached to the lamp cover and designed to prevent it 
from falling off.
• Before installing or removing the lens unit, be sure to disconnect the 
power plug or connector. Failure to do so may result in fire, electric 
shock, or injury.
• When hanging the projector from a ceiling, put the projector down 
on the floor or a workbench before attaching or replacing the lens 
unit. Failure to do so could result in parts falling off the projector and 
may cause an accident or personal injury.
• Do not touch the lens when the lens is moving (the lens is shifting) to 
adjust the projected image after installation. There is the risk of 
injury.
• Before replacing the lens unit, make sure to turn off the projector, 
wait at least 1 hour to allow the projector to cool thoroughly. Failure 
to do so may result in burns or other injuries.
• Do not attempt to install or remove the lens unit yourself. Be sure to 
request this service from a qualified technician or contact the Canon 
Customer Support Center.
• When installing and removing the lens unit, be sure not to touch the 
surface of the lens with your hands or scratch it.
• Do not apply force to parts (e.g. lead wires) that are connected to the 
lens unit or lens motor. Doing so may cause a malfunction.
• Do not replace the lens unit in a dusty location. If any dust or dirt 
enters the projector, this may adversely affect picture quality.
• When carrying or holding up the projector after attaching the lens 
unit, be sure not to hold the lens. Doing so may cause damage to the 
lens unit.
• If transportation is necessary, the lens unit should be removed 
before transporting the projector. If the projector is subjected to 
excessive impacts during transportation, the lens unit may be 
damaged.
• For details about which devices the projector is compatible with, 
contact the Canon Customer Support Center.
