Maintenance

Caution

Before starting the maintenance, unplug the power cable from the electrical outlet.

• If dust collects on the air filter or the air intake vent it can

cause the internal temperature of the unit to rise, and this

can lead to operation problems and a shortening of the

service life of optical parts. It is recommended that you

clean these parts at least once every three months. Clean

them more often than this if the unit is used in particularly

dusty environments.

• Do not rinse the air filter in water. Do not use detergents or

solvents.

Clean the surface by wiping it gently with a soft cloth.

If the unit is particularly dirty, moisten a cloth with

water containing a small amount of neutral detergent,

firmly wring the cloth dry, wipe the unit softly with the

cloth to remove stains, and then wipe it again with a

soft, dry cloth.

Do not use volatile substances such as wax, alcohol, or thinner

to clean the unit's surface. These can cause the unit to warp

and make the coating finish peel off.

Use a commercially available cloth for cleaning glasses

to gently wipe the lens.

Do not rub the lens with harsh materials or subject the lens to

impact shock, as it is fragile.
