Maintenance
Caution:
Be sure to turn off the projector and unplug the power
cord from the wall outlet before you perform any main-
tenance on the projector.
Cleaning the air-filter
This projector has two air-filters, for bottom air-outlet
slots and for front air outlet slots. Clean the air-filter
frequently. If the filter or ventilation slots become clogged
with dirt or dust, the temperature inside the projector
may rise and shut off the power (the TEMP indicator
starts to blink red).
For bottom air outlet slots
1. To remove the filter cover, press the ridged
area gently, push the cover in the direction
of the arrow and lift.
2. Remove the air-filter from
the filter cover.
3. Wash the air-filter.
• Use water or a mild
detergent diluted with
water to clean the filter.
Rinse the filter thoroughly and let it dry
completely.
4. Attach the filter to the cover.
5. Reinstall the filter cover.
For front air outlet slots
1. To remove the filter cover, press the
two ridged area gently and pull the cover.
2. Remove the dust from the
air-filter by using a vacuum
cleaner.
• Do not wash the air-
filter.
3. Reinstall the filter cover.
Important:
• If the filter is damaged or becomes extremely
dirty, contact your dealer for replacement.
• The power will not turn on if the air-filter cover is
improperly installed.
Caution:
Be sure to use the projector with an air-filter. If not,
dust may get inside the projector, causing a fire or a
breakdown.
Cleaning the projector and the ventilation
slots
Use a soft cloth to clean the projector and the ventila-
tion slots. When the slots become dirty, wipe them with
a soft cloth dampened with a diluted mild detergent,
and then wipe them with a dry cloth.
To protect the surface of the projector from fading or
deteriorating:
• Do not spray insecticide on or inside the projector.
• Do not use benzine or thinner to clean it.
• Do not let rubber or plastic materials come into
contact with the projector.
Cleaning the lens
Use a standard lens-cleaning brush or a piece of lens
tissue dampened with lens cleaning fluid. The lens sur-
face is fragile. Use only recommended, nonabrasive
lens-cleaning materials. Do not touch the lens with your
fingers.
