Caution: Do not use glass cleaner to clean the lens.

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.
1. Turn off the projector, allow it to cool down, and unplug the power cord.
Caution: To prevent dust from falling into the projector, do not place it on its end.
2. 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 EPSON to obtain a new one.
3. If you need to replace the filter, lift the tab and pull it upward to remove the filter.

Cleaning the Projector

Before you clean the case, first turn off the projector and unplug the power cord.
To remove dirt or dust, wipe the case with a soft, dry,
lint-free cloth.
To remove stubborn dirt or stains, moisten a soft cloth with
water and a mild detergent. Then wipe the case.
Do not use wax, alcohol, benzene, paint thinner, or other
chemical detergents. These can damage the case.
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.
4. To install the new filter, first insert the tabs, then press down until it clicks into place.
