Cleaning Instructions

Always clean the base of the Polycom CX5000 device and the power data box with a
dry cloth. For the camera head (mirrors and lens), use a micro fiber lens cleaning cloth
(available at camera and telescope retailers) and follow the instructions below.
To clean your Polycom CX5000 device lenses and mirrors
1. Avoid touching the lens elements and reflective surfaces of the mirror. Finger
prints on the reflective surface of the mirror should be cleaned promptly. Always
use a light touch.
2. Before attempting to clean any of the lenses, carefully remove, with a soft lens
brush or "canned air," all grit, dirt, dust, or other substances that may scratch
the surfaces of the optics. Then use soft lens cleaning tissues, a lint-free cotton
cloth, or a clean cotton swab to gently polish the lens surface.
3. For materials that still remain on the lenses, use a lens cleaning solution (such
as a commercial optical lens cleaner or household window cleaner) to remove
grease. Do not apply the cleaner directly onto a lens, since this may result in the
liquid seeping into the barrel of the lens. Instead, apply the solution onto a cloth
or swab. Then apply light pressure with soft circular motions of the cloth or swab
to remove the foreign substance. Excessive pressure (for example, rubbing
gritty dirt into the lens surfaces) may damage coatings.
4. Follow similar procedures to clean the mirrors. Excessive pressure may damage
coatings and may misalign the mirrors.
Use care when cleaning the lenses and mirrors. The camera head is fragile. The
Limited Warranty does not cover camera head damage or misalignment from
abuse, accident, or impact.
