Periodic maintenance keeps your projector in top working condition.

Cleaning the lens and mirror

To clean the projection lens and mirror:

1Take a piece of lens tissue and form it into a loose swab. Wet it with lens cleaning fluid or denatured alcohol, and gently wipe it over the surface of the lens or mirror.

2Take another clean piece of lens tissue and repeat the process, wiping it over the lens or mirror in the opposite direction.

Repeat this process until you can no longer detect smudges or particles on the lens. Do not look directly into the lens when the lamp is on!

Caution: Do not use acetone to clean the lens; it may remove paint from areas around the lens or mirror and leave a residue on the glass.
