then gently wipe with a soft brush or lens cleaning paper.
Never touch the lens with your fingers.

Cleaning the ventilation slots
1. Clean the ventilation slots and speaker grills on the unit
periodically using a vacuum cleaner. Use a soft brush
attachment when using the vacuum cleaner. Do not use a
hard attachment, such as a crevice tool, to prevent the
damage to the unit.

overheat, which may cause the unit to malfunction.
