SCREEN CARE AND CLEANING

With reasonable care, you may expect many years of dependable use of your Stewart projection screen  
We encourage you to keep your screen clean  To protect your screen when it is not in use, store it in the 
fully retracted position  Avoid getting any foreign material on the screen, as cleaning may prove very 
difficult  It may not be possible to remove scratches, paint, ink, etc 

GENERAL MAINTENANCE

Treat your screen surface delicately  Special attention to these instructions should be followed when 
cleaning 

`

`

A draftsman-style brush may be used to lightly whisk away any loose dirt or dust particles  (This 
type of brush is usually available at office supply stores ) Stewart Filmscreen has an optional screen 
cleaning kit that contains the proper type of brush  Contact your dealer if you would like to obtain 
this cleaning kit 

`

`

Particles left on the screen when it is retracted into the case may form an impression on the screen 
surface  Periodically wipe the back of the screen with a clean damp cloth 

`

`

For tougher spots, you can make a cleaning solution using a water-based detergent and warm water  To 
make the solution, mix one part Simple Green, 409, or other water based industrial cleaner with three 
parts warm water  Moisten a clean cotton cloth or Q-Tip with this solution, moisten the stained area, 
and gently lift off the stain  Never use an aggressive scrubbing action as you could damage the screen 
surface by removing the optical coating  Remoisten the area with clean water and dab dry with a clean 
sponge or cotton cloth  Any residual watermarks will evaporate on their own in a few minutes 

Do not use any other cleaning materials on the screen  Contact the factory if you have questions about 
removing difficult spots 

WEEKLY MAINTENANCE

To maximize the longevity of your Cima screen we recommend the screen be deployed overnight at 
least once a week  

If using a 3rd party control system to deploy your Cima screen, you may be able to program the 3rd party 
system to automatically deploy your Cima screen once a week 

REPLACEMENT PARTS & SERVICE

No user-serviceable parts are contained within the unit  Contact your dealer or the factory if you require 
part replacement or service
