Appendix
Cleaning the lens
Use a commercially available blower or lens
cleaning paper (for glasses and camera lenses)
for cleaning the lens. Do not use any liquid type
cleaning agents, as they may wear off the
coating film on the surface of the lens.

As the surface of the lens can easily get
damaged, be careful not to scrape or hit the
lens.
Cleaning the exhaust and intake vents
Use a vacuum cleaner to clean dust from the
exhaust vent and the intake vent.
Cleaning the projector
Ensure that you have unplugged the power
cord before cleaning the projector.

The cabinet as well as the operation panel is
made of plastic. Avoid using benzene or
thinner, as these can damage the finish on the
cabinet.

Do not use volatile agents such as insecticides
on the projector.
Do not attach rubber or plastic items to the
projector for long periods.
The effects of some of the agents in the plastic
may cause damage to the quality or finish of the
projector.

Wipe off dirt gently with a soft flannel cloth.

When the dirt is hard to remove, soak a cloth in
a mild detergent diluted with water, wring the
cloth well and then wipe the projector.
Strong cleaning detergents may discolor, warp
or damage the coating on the projector. Make
sure to test on a small, inconspicuous area on
the projector before use.
Maintenance
Thinner
• If you want to clean the air vents during pro-
jector operation, ensure you press
SSTANDBY/ON on the projector or
eSTANDBY on the remote control and put
the projector into standby mode. After the
cooling fan has stopped, clean the vents.

hours of use. Clean the filters more often when
the projector is used in a dusty or smoky
location.
Press SSTANDBY/ON on the pro-
jector to put the projector into
standby mode.
• Wait until the cooling fan stops.
• Disconnect the power cord and unplug
the power cord from the AC socket.
Remove the filter holders.• Turn the projector over. To remove the fil-
ter holders, press in the tabs while lifting
up.
