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.3
When cleaning the air filters by rinsing, dry them well.
Replace the air filters properly. Make sure that the air
filters are fully inserted.4
CAUTION
Do 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.
RECOMMENDATION
We recommend avoiding dusty/smoky environments 
when operating the projector.  Usage in these
environments may cause 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.
When moving this projector or while not using it over an
extended period of time, replace the lens cover.
Attach the lens cover according to the following
procedures.
Pass the string through a hole of the lens cover.1

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.
