Fixture Cleaning:
Due to fog residue, smoke, and dust cleaning the
internal and external optical lenses must be carried out periodically to
optimize light output.
1. Use normal glass cleaner and a soft cloth to wipe down the
outside casing.
2. Use a brush to wipe down the fan grill.
3. Clean the external optics with glass cleaner and a soft
cloth every 20 days.
4. Clean the internal optics with glass cleaner and a soft cloth
every 30-60 days.
5. Always be sure to dry all parts completely before plugging
the unit back in.
Cleaning frequency depends on the environment in which the fix-
ture operates (I.e. smoke, fog residue, dust, dew). In heavy club use
we recommend cleaning on a monthly basis. Periodic cleaning will
ensure longevity, and crisp output.
