Replacing the Air Filter
The air filter should be replaced periodically. When 
“Please replace the filter.” appears on the screen, 
replace the air filter immediately. 
Notes
• Replacing the air filter is very important to maintain the high 
efficiency of the projector and to prevent a malfunction. When 
the replacement message appears on the screen, replace the air 
filter without delay.
• When removing the air filter from the projector, be careful that 
no dust or object gets into the inside of the projector.
• Before replacing the air filter, turn off the projector and unplug 
the power cord. 
1 Hold down the adjuster lock lever, slide it 
to the right, raise the rear of the projector, 
then return the adjuster lock lever. While 
keeping the screw on the bottom of the 
projector turned inward with a coin or a 
slotted screwdriver, open the projector 
cover with your hand.
Note
Be sure that the projector is stable.
2 Push the filter lock knob to remove the 
filter cover.
3 Remove the air filter from the filter holder 
by holding the tab on the air filter.
4 Insert the new air filter into the filter holder 
with the white surface up, put the holder 
face down, then replace it into the 
projector.
5 Replace the filter cover.
6 While pushing the projector cover toward 
you by holding both sides of the cover on 
the lens side, close the cover until it clicks.
