Start by disconnecting your Xbox 360 from the power source. Open the disc tray and use a can of compressed air to blow out any dust. If it's really dirty, gently wipe the lens with a lint-free cloth dampened with isopropyl alcohol. Don't go overboard with liquid!

Yup, unplug it, open the tray, and blow out the dust. For stubborn grime, an alcohol wipe works wonders. Keep it gentle!

Just buy a lens cleaning disc. Less hassle, more game time!

I opened mine and cleaned it with a microfiber cloth and some isopropyl alcohol. Be careful, though! It can void your warranty if you're not cautious.
