Cleaning

Be certain to disconnect the power plug from the power outlet before cleaning.

Do not spray or otherwise expose the projector, lens, or screen to volatile substances such as
insecticides. Do not leave rubber or vinyl products in contact with the projector for long periods.
Doing so could cause them to undergo qualitative changes or the coatings may peel, etc.

Cleaning a Soiled Projector Main Unit

* Wipe with a lint-free, soft, dry cloth.

When very dirty, wipe with a cloth that has been moistened with a diluted neutral detergent, then
finish with a dry cloth. If a chemically-treated cloth is going to be used, please follow any written
warnings.

* Do not wipe with thinner, benzene, or other solvents. Doing so could cause them to undergo quali-

tative changes or the coatings may peel, etc.

* When removing the dust of the outflow and intake holes, use the brush attachment on a vacuum

cleaner to clean out the dust. Avoid using the vacuum directly without attaching the adapter as well
as the use of a nozzle adapter.

* Do not scratch or otherwise hit the projector body with your nails or other hard object, since this will

cause scratches.

Dirty Lens

* Clean using the same method you would use to clean a camera lens: Use a commercial blower for

camera use or cleaning paper for eye glasses. Be careful not to scratch the lens at this time.

Dust of the Intake and Outflow Holes

Dust that collects in the intake and outflow holes will obstruct the ventilation and cause the internal
temperature to rise which could cause damage. Clean this area carefully. As a guideline, clean at least
every 100 hours of usage.

* Switch off the power, check that the

POWER indicator has changed to a
steadily lit amber, then unplug the
power cable.

* Clean out the holes from the outside

using a vacuum cleaner. Use the
brush adapter of the vacuum cleaner
to do this. Avoid using the vacuum
directly without attaching the adapter
as well as the use of a nozzle adapter.

Cleaning the Inside of the Projector

Cleaning of the inside of the projector is required about once a year. Failure to clean over a long period
while dust has collected inside the projector could cause a fire or breakdown. Do not clean the inside
of the projector by yourself. Please be sure to contact Olympus Digital Technical Support.
