Turn off the projector, and disconnect the AC power cord from the AC outlet.
Turn over the projector and remove the air filters by pulling the latches upward.
Air filters prevent dust from accumulating on the optical elements inside the projector.  Should the air filters become clogged with dust particles, it will reduce cooling fans' effectiveness and may result in internal heat build up and adversely affect the life of the projector.  Clean the air filters following the steps below.
Clean  the  air  filters  with  a  brush  or  rinse  them softly.
When  cleaning  the  air  filters  by  rinsing,  dry  them well.    Replace  the  air  filters  properly.    Make  sure that the air filters are fully inserted.
CAUTIONDo  not  operate  the  projector  with  the  air  filters removed.    Dust  may  accumulate  on  the  optical elements degrading picture quality.Do not put small parts into the air intake vents.  It may result in malfunction of the projector.
RECOMMENDATIONWe  recommend  avoiding  dusty/smoky  environments w h e n  o p e r a t i n g  t h e  p r o j e c t o r.    U s a g e  i n  t h e s e environments may cause a poor image quality.When  using  the  projector  under  dusty  or  smoky conditions,  dust  may  accumulate  on  a  lens,  LCD panels, or optical elements inside the projector.  This condition  may  degrade  the  quality  of  a  projected image.    When  the  symptoms  above  are  noticed, contact  your  authorized  dealer  or  service  station  for proper cleaning.

This projector uses a high-pressure lamp which must be handled carefully\
 and properly.Improper handling may result in accidents, injury, or create a fire hazard.
● Lamp  life  may  differ  from  lamp  to  lamp  and  according  to  the  environment  of  use.    There  is  no  guarantee 
of the same life for each lamp.  Some lamps may fail or terminate their life in a shorter period of time than other similar lamps.
●  If  the  projector  indicates  that  the  lamp  should  be  replaced,  i.e.,  if  the  LAMP  REPLACE  indicator  lights  up, 
replace the lamp with a new one IMMEDIATELY after the projector has cooled down.  (Follow carefully the instructions in the Lamp Replacement section of this manual.)  Continuous use of the lamp with the LAMP REPLACE indicator lighted may increase the risk of lamp explosion.
●  A Lamp may explode as a result of vibration, shock or degradation as a result of hours of use as its lifetime 
draws  to  an  end.    Risk  of  explosion  may  differ  according  to  the  environment  or  conditions  in  which  the projector and lamp are being used.
IF A LAMP EXPLODES, THE FOLLOWING SAFETy  PRECAUTIONS SHOULD BE TAKEN .
If a lamp explodes, disconnect the projector's AC plug from the AC outlet immediately.  Contact an authorized service  station  for  a  checkup  of  the  unit  and  replacement  of  the  lamp.   Additionally,  check  carefully  to  ensure that  there  are  no  broken  shards  or  pieces  of  glass  around  the  projector  or  coming  out  from  the  cooling  air circulation holes.  Any broken shards found should be cleaned up carefully.  No one should check the inside of the projector except those who are authorized trained technicians and who are familiar with projector service.  Inappropriate attempts to service the unit by anyone, especially those who are not appropriately trained to do so, may result in an accident or injury caused by pieces of broken glass\

Troubleshooting
Before calling your dealer or service center for assistance, check the i\
tems below once again.
– Make  sure  you  have  properly  connected  the  projector  to  peripheral  equipment  as  described  on 
pages15-17.
–  Make sure all equipment is connected to AC outlet and the power is turned on.
–  When  you  operate  the  projector  with  a  computer  and  it  does  not  project  an  image,  restart  the 
computer.
– Solutions Problem 
 No power –  Plug the power cord of the projector into the AC outlet.
–  See if the POWER indicator lights red.
–  Wait until the POWER indicator stops blinking to turn on the
  projector again. The projector can be turned on after the
  POWER indicator turns red.(See page 19.)
–  Check  the  WARNING  indicator.    If  the  WARNING  indicator 
lights red, the projector cannot be turned on. (See page 51.)
