Cleaning and Replacing the Air Filter
Clean the air filter on the side of the projector after every 100 hours of
use. If it is not cleaned periodically, it can become clogged with dust,
preventing proper ventilation. This can cause overheating and damage
the projector. To clean the air filter, follow these steps:
1. Turn off the projector, allow it to cool down, and unplug the
power cord.
2. To prevent dust from falling into the projector, place the
projector as shown below.
3. To clean the filter, EPSON recommends using a small vacuum
cleaner designed for computers and other office equipment. If you
don’t have one, gently clean the filter using a very soft brush (such
as an artist’s camel-hair brush).
If the dirt is difficult to remove or if the filter is torn, replace it.
Contact your dealer or call EPSON at (800) 873-7766 to obtain a
new one. In Canada, please call (800) 463-7766 to locate a dealer.
4. If you need to replace the filter, lift the tab and pull it upward to
remove the filter.
5. To install the new filter, first insert the tabs, then press down on
the opposite end of the filter until it clicks in place.
note
When you get a replacement
lamp for your projector, a
new air filter is included.
You should replace the filter
when you replace the lamp.
