There's nothing you can really adjust or check yourself. The AF optics are on the floor of the mirror box. Unless you really know what you are doing you could cause more problems than you solve trying to clean them - and it's quite unlikely they are dirty or that cleaning them will make a difference.My guess is that Canon would charge around $100 to fix such a problem. I think that's their minimum charge for anything.
