About this chapter
This chapter contains the lamp replacement procedure, which can be done by a trained operator. Next to that, some information
about air filter replacement is available. The air filter replacement itself can only be performed by Barco qualified service technicians,
since a ’hidden’ menu item is needed to reset the air filter runtime.
Maintenance procedures like lens cleaning, etc are also explained. These procedures can easily be performed by the operator or
owner of the projector.
Advanced service information
Advanced service information for qualified service technicians (e.g. Service manual) can be found on Barco’s Partnerzone (URL

8.1 Cleaning the lens
To minimize the possibility of damage to optical coatings, or scratches to lens surfaces, we have developed
recommendations for cleaning. FIRST, we recommend you try to remove any material from the lens by blowing
it off with clean, dry deionized air. DO NOT use any liquid to clean the lenses.
Necessary tools
Toraysee® cloth (delivered together with the lens kit). Order number : R379058.
Howtocleanthelens?
1. Always wipe lenses with a CLEAN Toraysee® cloth.
2. Wipe lenses in a one single direction.
Warning: Do not wipe back and forwards across the lens surface as this tends to grind dirt into the coating.
3. Do not leave the cleaning cloth in either an open room or la
b coat pocket, as doing so can contaminate the cloth.
4. If smears occur when cleaning lenses, replace the cloth. Smears are the first indication of a dirty cloth.
CAUTION: Do not use fabric softener when washing the cleaning cloth or softener sheets when drying the
cloth.
Do not use liquid cleaners on the cloth as doing so will contaminate the cloth.
Other lenses can also be cleaned safely with this Toraysee
®
cloth.
8.2 Cleaning the exterior of the projector
How to clean the exterior of the projector ?
1. Switch off the projector and unplug the power cord at the projector side.
2. Clean the housing of the projector with a damp cloth. Stubborn stains may be removed with a cloth lightly dampened with a mild
detergent solution.
