Filters prevent dust from accumulating on the optical elements inside the projector. Should the filters 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, clean the filters
immediately. Clean the filters by following the steps below.
Gently clean the filters by using a brush or rinse them
softly.

when you operate the projector. Usage in these
environments may cause poor image quality.

elements inside the projector degrading the quality of a
projected image. When the symptoms above are noticed,
contact your authorized dealer or service station for proper
