Cleaning and Replacing the Air Filter

Clean the air filter at the bottom 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. Turn the projector on its side so that the handle is on top and you

can access the filter easily.

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 in the
United States and Canada to obtain a new one.

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.
