Cleaning and Replacing the Filter
Clean the filter periodically. If the filter is heavily stained and does not get clean, or if it is damaged, replace the filter
with a new filter. Otherwise, dirt may get inside and appear on the screen, possibly preventing you from enjoying the
video image fully. If dirt gets inside or if you need information about the filter, consult a Panasonic-authorized dealer
where you have purchased the projector or nearest Panasonic Service center.
Turn off the MAIN POWER switch.
After the projector goes into stand-by state with the STAND BY indicator on, turn off the main power switch and pull out the
power cord from the projector and the wall outlet.
Remove the filter.
Loosen the screw with a flat-end screwdriver.
The screws are fitted so that they do not come off the filter.
If the filter is clogged with dirt, etc., the projector goes into an
emergency mode (the EMERGENCY indicator blinks).
So, clean the filter periodically. For the emergency mode, refer to
pages 11 and 27.

After you have washed the filter in water, make sure the filter is
completely dry before reinstalling it. Otherwise, electric shock
