Your Polaview Model 110 Projector requires minimal main-
tenance; however, follow these recommendations for peri-
odic maintenance to ensure top performance.
The lamp, lenses, mirrors, and LCD panels have been care-
fully aligned at the factory to give you the clearest, brightest
image possible. However, mishandling can cause misalign-
ment or damage to the optical elements. Take appropriate
care when you use or handle any of the optical elements.
Cleaning the lens
From time to time, you need to clean the lens.
1Take a piece of lens tissue and form it into a loose swab.
Wet it with lens cleaning fluid or denatured alcohol, and
gently move it over the lens surface.
2Take a part of the lens tissue that you have not touched, and
repeat the process, going over the lens in another direction.
Caution: Your projector contains electric circuitry and sen-
sitive optics. Keep fluids away from it.
