Turn me
off
and
unplug me. Then you can
do PM on my
case,
my
lamp and my
filters.
Make sure
it’s just
air
and
not
a
flammable
gas that
comes in a
similar
container.
if my lens is
smeared, lens
cleaning paper is
the way to go.
Now go after my
air
filter or filters.
They may be
beneath
me,
behind
me or
even on
top
of me.
A lot of my
brothers and
sisters found
out the hard way
those schedules
don’t work
in
the desert.
Once my filters are
removed, clean them with a
small vacuum, like the ones
used on computers, if you
have one. if
not
, use a soft
brush and carefully get my
filters clean.
if you
can’t
clean
my filters, you’ll
have to
replace
‘em. Not all filters
are created equal.
Make sure you
have the right fil-
ter for whatever
name I’m wearing!
One of the first casualties if
one of my filters is clogged is my
lamp.
if the image I project is
getting darker or deteriorating
in clarity, my lamp is dying.
You can replace my lamp
when it goes, but make
sure you have the right
lamp made just for
me.
Keep
spares
on hand.
if need be, moisten a soft
cloth with an alcohol-
based lens cleaner and
gently wipe my lens.
Leave
my wiring
alone!
But
that’s
it!
Once I cool down,
clean my lens of
any dirt and dust.
Use a canister of
compressed air.
Forget about
any
“hour of use
schedule”
you
might have to
clean my filters.
Clean my
case,
too.
Wipe me down with a soft,
lint-free cloth.
iF I've got
stubborn
dirt, a soft cloth
moistened with water
and detergent
will clean me up.
Don’t
use alcohol, benzene,
thinner, or other chemical
detergents on my case.
They could warp me
and later when you
turn me on, the vapors
could be dangerous to
you and me.
