Cleaning and Replacing the Filters The projector has several filters that should be cleaned periodically to remove trapped dust. If the filters become clogged, the projector can overheat and damage can result. Clean the filters approximately every three months, or after every 100 hours of use; clean them more often if you use the projector in a dusty environment. Cleaning the Lamp Filter To clean the lamp filter, follow these steps: 1. Remove the lamp as described on page 94. 2. Hold the shutter open and use a vacuum cleaner (a small one designed for computers and office equipment) to remove any dust from the wire mesh filters inside. caution Avoid touching the glass portion of the lamp. Oils transferred from your hands can cause the lamp to overheat and fail prematurely. 3. Insert the lamp back into the projector, tighten its screws, and replace the lamp cover.
