Caring for Your Epson MovieMate
The projector needs little maintenance. All you need to do on a regular basis is keep the lens 
clean. You also may need to clean the air filter to help prevent overheating.
Warning: Before you clean any part of the projector, turn it off and unplug the power cord. Never 
open any part of the projector, except as described in this  User’s Guide. Dangerous electrical 
voltages in the projector can injure you severely. Do not try to service this product yourself, except 
as specifically explained in this  User’s Guide . 
The only parts you should replace are the lamp and air filter. If another part needs replacing, 
contact Epson or a qualified servicer (see page 69).
Follow the instructions in this section to clean the lens and case, clean and replace the air 
filter, replace the lamp, and store or transport the projector.
Protecting Epson MovieMate
The projector is designed for use virtually anywhere at home. However, the projector and its 
accessories should not be exposed to water, smoke, direct heat or sunlight, or left outside for 
long periods of time. As with other electronic equipment, please avoid exposure of the 
projector to moisture, dust, smoke, and other environmental factors which may result in 
damage to internal electronics over time. See the warranty brochure included with your 
projector for additional detail s on the use of the projector.
Cleaning the Lens
