Cleaning the DPF
Treat the screen gently, it is made of glass and can break. To clean fingerprints or dust from the LCD screen, we recommend using a soft, non-abrasive cloth such as a camera lens cloth to clean the LCD screen. If you use a commercial LCD Cleaning Kit, do not apply the cleaning liquid directly to the LCD screen. Clean the LCD screen with cleaning cloth moistened with the liquid.
Clean the outer surface of the DPF (excluding the screen) and the remote control with a soft cloth dampened with water.
Change the Decorative Mat
1. Power off the DPF, and then unplug the power adapter.
2. Remove two of the screws on the back of the frame and lift the unit from the frame.
3. Remove the mat and insert the replacement mat.
