Turn off the projector and unplug the power cable. 2. Turn the projector on its side so that the handle is on top and you can access the filter easily.
5300.book Page 120 Tuesday, April 13, 1999 4:19 PM 4. The filter is attached to the inside of the filter cover. It is recommended that you use a small vacuum cleaner designed for computers and other office equipment to clean the filter. If you don’t have one, use a dry, lint-free cloth. If the dirt is difficult to remove or if the filter is torn, replace it. Contact your dealer or call EPSON Accessories at (800) 873-7766 in the United States and Canada to obtain a new one. 5.
