RECOMMENDATION
We recommend avoiding dusty/smoky
environments when you operate the
projector. Usage in these environments
may cause poor image quality.
When using the projector under dusty or
smoky conditions, dust may accumulate
on a lens, LCD panels, or optical elements
inside the projector degrading the quality of a
projected image. When the symptoms above
are noticed, contact your authorized dealer or
service center for proper cleaning.
Be sure to reset the Filter counter after replacing
the filter.

Filter prevents dust from accumulating on the optical elements inside the projector. Should the filter
become 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. If a “Filter warning” icon appears on the
screen, replace the filters immediately. Replace the filters by following the steps below.
Put new filters back into the position. Make
sure that the filters are fully inserted to the
projector.

CAUTION
– Do not operate the projector with the
filters removed. Dust may accumulate
on the optical elements degrading
picture quality.
– Do not put anything into the air vents.
Doing so may result in malfunction of
the projector.
– Do not wash the filters with water or
any other liquid matter. Otherwise the
filters may be damaged.
