Maintenance

To maintain optimum performance and minimize wear, the user should clean this product regularly. Usage and environment are contributing factors in determining the cleaning frequency.

As a rule, clean this product at least twice a month. Dust build-up reduces light output performance and can cause overheating. This can lead to reduced light source life and increased mechanical wear.

To clean an MVP™, follow the recommendations below:

Unplug the panel from power.

Wait until the unit is cold.

Use a soft brush to remove dust collected on the external components.

Wipe the outside of the LED strips with a soft, lint-free cloth dampened with a solution of water and detergent. Apply gentle pressure only.

Make sure all connections are thoroughly dry before reconnecting power and signal cables.

Always dry the external surfaces carefully after cleaning them.
