Lens
As required
CLEAN:
Clean the lens only when
absolutely necessary. A small amount of
dust on the lens has very little effect on
picture quality.
To clean:
Use a soft lint-free cloth without
any chemicals. Use only a high-quality
coated optics cleaning fluid, which can be
purchased from most camera supply stores.
Apply the coated optics fluid directly onto
the lint-free cloth until moistened. Wipe in a
single sweep across the surface of the lens.
To avoid scratching the lens
do not
scrub or
rub in a circular motion. Discard the cloth
after every use. Do not use cleaning tools
treated with Ether. Do not use cleaning
solvents that contain ammonia. Use
compressed air to remove any particles
remaining on the lens.
Lamp
As required
CLEAN (GLASS ONLY):
Clean if
absolutely necessary. Never touch the glass
surface of the lamp. Fingerprints left on the
glass will seriously degrade lamp
performance or cause “hotspots” which can
lead to an accumulation of intense heat in
the touched area and cause the lamp to
shatter.
To clean:
Wait until lamp is cool. Moisten a
clean, lint-free cotton cloth with isopropyl
alcohol and gently rub the surface of the
glass in a circular motion until clean.
1000 hrs or sooner
if required
REPLACE:
Refer to 4.4 Lamp and Filter
Replacement procedure later in this section.
Filters
Whenever a lamp is
replaced or sooner
if required
REPLACE:
Do not reuse old filters. Use the
filter provided in the Christie Lamp and
Filter Kit.
Covers (External)
As required
CLEAN:
Clean dust from external covers
using a clean, lint free cotton cloth as
required.
NOTE:
Before cleaning the modules, it is
recommended that you install the lens cap.
This will keep dust particles from settling on
the glass surface of the lens.
