The digital cameras located in the corners of the frame are protected from dust and dirt by
windows. In extremely dusty environments, spray a proprietary household, alcohol-free
glass cleaner onto a cotton swab and rub it gently on the windows. Don’t use compressed
air to clean the cameras.
Keeping the writing surface clean
Follow these tips to keep the interactive whiteboard’s surface clean.
l
Clean your interactive whiteboard at least every six months.
l
Don’t spray cleaner directly onto the interactive whiteboard’s surface. Instead, spray a light
amount of cleaner onto a cloth and then gently wipe the interactive surface.

I M P O R T A N T
Turn off your interactive whiteboard system before you clean it so that you do not
scramble the desktop icons or inadvertently activate applications when you wipe the
interactive surface.

To view dirt or streaks more easily, set your projector to Standby (lamp off) mode.
Cleaning the projector
W A R N I N G
Cleaning a wall-mounted projector can result in a fall or injury. Use caution when climbing a
ladder and consider removing the projector from its wall-mounting bracket to clean it.

l
Never touch the mirror with your hands or a brush, and do not scrub the surface of the
mirror with the supplied cleaning cloth. Instead, use the supplied cleaning cloth to clean
the mirror with a light touch, and do not put any cleaning solvents on the cloth or the mirror.
Do not apply pressure to the projector lens or mirror.
l
Before you clean the projector, press the
Power
button twice on the remote control to
put the system in Standby mode and then allow the lamp to cool for at least 30 minutes.
l
Do not spray cleaners, solvents or compressed air directly on the projector. Do not use
spray cleaners or solvents near any part of the projector because they can damage or
stain the unit. Spraying the system could spread a chemical mist on some of the
projector’s components and lamp, resulting in damage and poor image quality.
l
Do not allow liquids or commercial solvents of any kind to flow into the projector base or
head.
