Cleaning
Device Exterior
Note: Turn off the power and unplug the device before maintenance
(cleaning, disinfection, etc.) to prevent malfunction and electric
shock.
Use a soft cloth moistened in a solution of neutral detergent to wipe away any
dirt. Then remove moisture with a dry soft cloth.
Note: Never use thinner, acetone, benzene or other organic solvents as
they may damage the paint or resin parts.
After using water (cleanser) for cleaning, remove any remaining
moisture with a thoroughly wrung out cloth making sure that no
liquid enters the interior of the device.
Electrodes
Cationic soap and water will be enough for normal cleaning.
Dry all metal parts thoroughly before storing to prevent rust.
Do not use alcohol to clean electrode leads (or extension cables) as it may cause
the vinyl coating to harden.
