Cleaning the Air Filter

When the message that prompts cleaning the air filter appears, clean the air filter. If the dust cannot be removed from the air filter even after cleaning, replace the air filter with a new one. For details on a new air filter, consult with qualified Sony personnel.

Caution

If you continue to use the projector even after the message is displayed, dust may accumulate, clogging it. As a result, the temperature may rise inside the projector, leading to a possible malfunction or fire.

  1. Turn off the projector and disconnect the AC power cord from a wall outlet.
  2. To remove the air filter cover, lift it up while pressing the two levers.

  3. Remove the air filter from the air filter cover.

  4. Clean the air filter with a vacuum cleaner.
  5. Put the air filter back in the air filter cover, then attach the air filter cover to the unit.

Note

  • If you remove the air filter cover while the power is turned on, you may accidentally touch the fan inside the projector, which may cause injury.
  • Pull the air filter pull stick upwards when removing the air filter from the air filter cover. When attaching the air filter to the air filter cover, make sure the correct side is being attached so that the pull stick is protruding from the air filter.
  • Securely attach the air filter to the air filter cover, taking care not to hit the hook of the air filter cover. If the air filter is attached to the air filter cover incorrectly, malfunction may occur.
