Maintaining and
Transporting the Projector
Your projector needs little maintenance. All you need to do on a
regular basis is keep the lens clean. Any dirt or smears on the lens may
show up on your projected image.
You also need to periodically clean the air filter on the bottom of the
projector. A clogged air filter can block ventilation needed to cool the
projector and cause overheating.
The only parts you should replace are the lamp and air filter. If any
other part needs replacing, contact your dealer or a qualified servicer.
This chapter covers the following:
■ Cleaning the lens
■ Cleaning the projector case
■ Cleaning and replacing the air filter
■ Replacing the lamp
■ Resetting the lamp timer
■ Transporting the projector
