Cleaning
Regular cleaning will extend the life and performance of
this unit. The recommended way to clean the display and
related parts is described below.
Before cleaning, be sure to unplug the power cord from
the power outlet.
Cleaning the display panel body and remote
control
Do not under any circumstances use solvents such as
benzine or thinner for cleaner. Use of such liquids may
cause deterioration or peeling of paint from the display or
remote control unit.
Wipe the display and remote control gently with a soft
cloth. In the case of excessive dirt buildup, dampen a soft
cloth with a diluted neutral cleaning detergent and after
wringing the cloth thoroughly, wipe the component and
then dry it with a dry soft cloth.
Cleaning the screen
After dusting, wipe the screen gently using the supplied
cleaning cloth or a soft cloth. Do not use tissue or a rough
cloth. As the surface of the screen is easily scratched, do
not rub it or hit it with a hard object.
Cleaning the vents
As a general rule, use a vacuum cleaner about once a
month to clean the vents on the rear panel of the display
of dust buildup (set the vacuum cleaner to its weakest
setting when doing this).
Using the unit without cleaning it of dust will cause the
internal temperature to increase, resulting in possible
breakdown or fire.
