Maintenance
Proper maintenance will extend the lifespan of your projector and ensure optimal performance.
1. Cleaning the Lens
Gently wipe the projector lens with the provided lens cloth or a soft, lint-free cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, solvents, or excessive pressure, as these can damage the lens coating.

Regularly inspect and clean the air vents to prevent dust buildup, which can impede airflow and affect the cooling system. Use a soft brush or a can of compressed air to carefully remove any dust from the vents.
3. Storage
When the projector is not in use for an extended period, store it in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Always place the lens cap back on to protect the lens from dust and scratches.
