How to Clean a 50-Inch RCA Rear Projection TV

TVs do require occasional cleaning as they seem to be a magnet for dust and fingerprints. Rear projection TVs require special care. It's easy to scratch or damage the screen if you aren't careful or use the wrong cleaning materials. Dust can build up on the ventilation ports, restricting the airflow and shortening the TV's lifespan. Cleaning your RCA rear projection TV only take a few minutes.

Instructions

    • 1

      Turn off the TV before you begin cleaning. If you leave the TV on, ventilation fans can suck flying dust into the TV.

    • 2

      Wipe the TV down with a microfiber cloth to remove dust. Make sure the ventilation ports are not clogged.

    • 3

      Dampen the cloth with warm water and wipe to remove any stubborn spots.

Tips & Warnings

  • If the TV has greasy marks on it such as fingerprints, use a cleaning product specifically designed for cleaning TV screens.

  • Don't use paper towels, ammonia-based cleaners or abrasive powders. They can damage the TV.

  • Don't spray water directly onto the TV. Water can run down the screen or housing and get inside the TV.
