CD player cleaning.

Hi,
Is there any maintenance required for a CD player? I have an Acurus player that refused to play any CD's the other day and then when it did it would just skip from track to track. It's working fine again and I was thinking dirt on the lens. Should I be cleaning the lens regularly? Thanks for any info.
Paul.

Thanks Joolz. I have a CDP that has alignment problems? or perhaps just a dirty lens which skips regularly. Any pertainent info would be appreciated.

What about lens cleaning? Will a dirty lens cause skipping? If you have a CDP that skips on any disc played, will a CD lens cleaner remedy the problem? And, if this doesn't cure the problem, is there an alignment process? (Like the alignment of a phono cartridge?)
