Product Maintenance
To maintain optimum performance and minimize wear, clean the products frequently. Usage
and environment are contributing factors in determining the cleaning frequency. As a general
guideline, products should be cleaned at least twice a month. Dust build-up reduces light
output, performance, and can cause overheating. This can lead to reduced light source life.
For products containing external optical lenses, clean them periodically to optimize light
output. The cleaning frequency depends on the environment in which the product operates.
Damp, smoky, or particularly dirty surrounding can cause greater accumulation of dirt on the
product’s optics, requiring more frequent cleaning.
To clean a product:
1. Unplug the product from power.
2. Wait until the product is at room temperature.
3. Use a vacuum (or dry compressed air) and a soft brush to remove dust collected on the
external vents and reachable internal components.
4. Clean all external glass optics and glass surfaces with a mild solution of glass cleaner
or isopropyl alcohol, and a soft, lint-free cotton cloth or lens-cleaning tissue.
5. Clean all plastic surfaces, including LED lenses, with mild soapy water and a soft, lint-
free cotton cloth or a lens-cleaning tissue.
6. Apply the solution directly to the cloth or tissue and wipe any dirt and grime to the
outside edge of the lens.
7. Gently polish the external glass surfaces until they are free of haze and lint.
