SettingMaintenance and Care
Filter Instructions
Filter prevents dust from accumulating on the optical elements inside th\
e projector. Should the filter becomes clogged with dust particles, it will reduce cooling fans’ effectiveness and may result in internal heat buildup and adversely affect the life of the projector. This projector has an electrically operated filter which helps you to replace the filter easily. The projector monitors the condition of the filter at all time and repla\
ces a filter with a new one automatically when it detects the clogging. 
If  the  projector  reaches  a  time  set  in  the  timer  setting  (p.56), a  Filter  replacement  icon  (Fig.1)  appears  on  the  screen  and the  WARNING  FILTER  indicator  on  the  top  control  lights  up  . When  you  see  this  icon,  replace  the  filter  as  soon  as  possible (p.52)  and  reset  the  Filter  counter  (p.59).  If  the  filter  is  out  of scroll  and  the  projector  reaches  a  time  set  in  the  timer  setting, Fig.  2  appears  on  the  screen,  indicating  that  the  filter  cartridge replacement is necessary.
When  the  filter  scroll  is  counted  down  to  1,  the  Last  scroll  icon (Fig.3) appears on the screen, indicating that there is one scroll left in the filter cartridge (p.56).
If  the  projector  detects  that  the  filter  is  clogged  and  no  scroll is  left  in  the  filter  cartridge,  a  Filter  cartridge  replacement  icon (Fig.  4)  appears  on  the  screen  and  the  WARNING  FILTER indicator  on  the  top  control  lights  up  .  When  you  see  this  icon, replace  the  filter  cartridge  (p.58)  and  reset  the  Filter  counter (p.59) and the Scroll counter (p.59).
When the filter is being scrolled using the Filter control function in  the  setting  menu  (p.52),  a  Filter  replacement  icon  and “Please  wait...”  message  (Fig.5)  appear  on  the  screen  and  the WARNING  FILTER  indicator  blinks  slow  (approx.  2  seconds ON, 2 seconds OFF).
The WARNING FILTER indicator blinks fast when the projector d e t e c t s  a n  a b n o r m a l  c o n d i t i o n ,  t h e  f i l t e r  c a r t r i d g e  i s  n o t installed properly, or the filter scroll is not working properly .
