Hi There Teacher!
the air filter unclips on the left hand side, lens facing out.
after vacumming out the filter see below for filter reset counter procedure
Good Luck!
Turn the projector on and reset the filter time using the FILTER TIME item in the EASY MENU. Before taking care of the air filter, make sure the power switch is off and the power cable is not plugged in, then allow the projector to cool sufficiently. Taking care of the air filter in a high temperature state of the projector could cause an electric shock, a burn or malfunction to the projector. Use only the air filter of the specified type. Do not use the projector without the air filter or the filter cover. It could result in a fire or malfunction to the projector. Clean the air filter periodically. If the air filter becomes clogged by dust or the like, internal temperatures rise and could cause a fire, a burn or malfunction to the projector. WARNING Please replace the air filter when it is damaged or too soiled. When you replace the projection lamp, please replace the air filter . An air filter of specified type will come together with a replacement lamp for this projector . Please reset the filter time only when you have cleaned or replaced the air filter, for a suitable indication about the air filter. The projector may display the message such as ?gCHECK THE AIR FLOW?h or turn off the projector, to prevent the internal heat level rising. NOTE (1) Press the MENU button to display a menu. (2) Point at the FILTER TIME using the ??/?? button, then press the button. A dialog will appear. (3) Press the ?? button to select RESET on the dialog. It performs resetting the filter time.

Testimonial: "Thank you very much! My projector is back on track. You saved me. My students and I are very happy!"

It says to Check the air flow

Open the cover. At some ends there will be 'filters', to clean the air entering the projector. If these filters are blocked with dust or lint, air flow will be blocked.
Clean any dust from these filters. Close the cover and check whether your problem is solved.

Problem with hitachi cp-RS55 multimedia projector sir

There is a menu item which has both the lamp hour reset and check air flow, etc. You must go into the menu and reset the air flow item. MAKE SURE YOU CLEAN THE DUST FILTER!! Heat is the number one killer of projectors and Hitachi's run "hot". I clean my projector once a week--Hey, I'm not rich. lol! Also, excessive heat will cause the lcd panels to fail prematurely and cause lots of other components to do the same.--Rick

My projector displays a message called ''check the air flow''. what can i do to remove that message?

Check Air Flow means that the heat sensor is activated. This message means that the air around the projector is not circulating well... causing the heat. Check that the projector has at least 2 ft free air around it. Also, make sure that the filter is cleaned.

Hope this helps!

Check air flow

You need to clean the filters. When the filters collect alot of dust on them, they block the airflow to the internal parts of the projector and can cause the bulb to blow due to the temperature getting to hot.
