Cleaning the Air Filter
If the air filter becomes clogged with dust, it can cause
overheating and damage the projector. Follow these steps to
clean the filter:
1. Press the P Power button to turn the projector off, and
wait for the P power light to stop flashing.
2. Unplug the power cord and disconnect any cables.
3. Turn the projector upside-down
4. Use a small vacuum cleaner designed for computers and
other office equipment to clean the air filter. If you don’t
have one, gently clean the filter using a very soft brush (such
as an artist’s camel-hair brush).
Note: If the air filter is difficult to clean or if it is broken, it should
be replaced. See the next section for instructions.

Replacing the Lamp
The projection lamp typically lasts for about 2000 hours of use.
(If you use
Theatre Black color mode almost exclusively, the
lamp lasts about 3000 hours.) It is time to replace the lamp
when:
❏ The projected image gets darker or starts to deteriorate.
❏ The
warning light on top of the projector flashes red at
0.5-second intervals.
❏ The message
Replace the lamp appears on the screen when
you start projecting. To maintain projector brightness and
image quality, replace the lamp as soon as possible after you
see the message.
Request replacement lamp part number V13H010L2H.
Note: To view the number of hours your lamp has been used, check
the Info menu.
Warning: Be very careful when removing the lamp. Let the lamp
cool before replacing it. If the lamp breaks, handle the shards
carefully to avoid injury. In the unlikely event that the bulb has
ruptured, small glass fragments may be present and should be
removed with caution. If your projector is mounted on the ceiling,
you should unmount it. This will make it easier for you to replace
the lamp and minimize the chance of any small glass fragments
dropping from the projector.
