chemical detergents. These can damage the case.
Cleaning and Replacing the Air Filter
Clean the air filter and air intake and exhaust vents on the
bottom and rear of the projector after every 100 hours of use.

preventing proper ventilation. This can cause overheating and
damage the projector. When the filter is clogged, the projector

1. Turn off the projector, allow it to cool down, and unplug the
power cord.
2. Clean the air vent on the back of the projector.
Use a small vacuum cleaner designed for computers and
other office equipment. If you don't have one, use a very soft
brush (such as an artist's brush).
