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 filter cartridge
immediately by following the steps below.

CAutION
Do not operate the projector with the filters re-
moved. Dust may accumulate on the optical ele-
ments degrading picture quality.
Do not put anything into the air vents. Doing so
may result in malfunction of the projector.
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 ele-
ments inside the projector degrading the quality of a project-
ed image. When the symptoms above are noticed, contact
your authorized dealer or service station for proper clean-
ing.
Be sure to reset the filter counter after replacing the filters.
