Air Filter and Vent Maintenance

Regular filter maintenance is important to maintaining your projector. This Epson projector is designed with an easily accessible, user-replaceable filter to protect your projector and make regular maintenance and cleaning simple.

If regular maintenance is not performed, this Epson projector will notify you when the tempurature inside the projector has reached a high level. Do not wait until this warning appears to maintain your projector filter as prolonged exposure to high temperatures may reduce the life of your projector or laser.

Cleaning the Air Filter and Vents

Slide the air filter cover latch and open the air filter cover.

3. Open the stopper.

5. Vacuum the front of the air filter (the side with the tabs) to remove the remaining dust.

Caution: Do not rince the air filter in water, or use any detergent or solvent to clean it. Do not use canned air; the gases may leave a flammable residue, or push dust and debris into the projector's optics.

Note: If dust is difficult to remove or the air filter is damaged, replace the air filter. Epson Replacement Filter for the BL 760wi
