Turn off the power of the projector, and then disconnect the power cord after the projector has cooled sufficiently. Otherwise, its parts may be damaged due to internal heat.
When you replace the filter, you may release some dust.
For inquiries on replacement filter purchase, please see 'Contact SAMSUNG WORLDWIDE' in Chapter 5.
