CONTENTSAir filter cleaning
CAUTION
If you use the projector mounted on the ceiling,
ask the dealer to carry out the maintenance
such as cleaning.
The filter inside the air filter cover is the part
to shut out dusts or dregs.
Do not use the projector with the filter taken
off.
We recommend you clean the air filter
frequently. (The cleaning period is once per
50 hours approximately).2 1
Unplug the power cord.
Take off the air filter cover.
The filter is on the right side of the projector.
Pull the bottom side of the cover upward to
remove the filter cover.
Detach the air filter.
Detach the air filter from the air

Notes
•When the air filter is dusty, the ventilation is
impaired. This causes the temperature inside the
projector to rise, and may damage the unit.
•Attach the air filter cover firmly after the cleaning.
If it is not set correctly, the dusts will enter and
they will be projected and overlapped on the
picture.
•If you wash the air filter with water, be sure to let it
dry fully before reinstalling it.  Using it damp will
result in malfunction.
•If the air filter is damaged, contact your store of
purchase and replace it with a new one.  Using a
damaged air filter will cause dust or dirt to get
inside the projector and onto the images.
