This chapter describes the maintenance procedures that you can perform
yourself.
Warning The exterior of the fixture can become hot. Always disconnect
the fixture from AC power and allow to cool for at least 20
minutes before handling or opening.
C L E A N I N G
Regular cleaning of the elements in the optical path, as well as the air
vents, is vital to maintaining the operational quality of the Mania EF1i.
Important! Excessive dust, smoke fluid, and particulate buildup degrades
performance and causes overheating and damage to the
fixture that is not covered by the warranty.
C l e a n i n g t h e a i r v e n t s
To maintain adequate cooling, dust must be cleaned from the air vents
periodically. Remove dust from the air vents with a soft brush, cotton
swab, vacuum, or compressed air.
C l e a n i n g o p t i c a l c o m p o n e n t s
Clean the optical components regularly. The presence of smudges or dust
on optical surfaces can reduce the strength of the light output and the
quality of the effects.
Use care when cleaning optical components and work in a clean, well lit
area. The coated surfaces are fragile and easily scratched. Do not use
solvents that can damage plastic or painted surfaces.
1 Disconnect the fixture from power and allow it to cool for 20 minutes.
