Preventive Maintenance
Note:
Preventive maintenance is limited to cleaning the unit and connectors.
Cleaning
Front Panel
Clean the front panel face and meters with a soft cloth dampened with a mild detergent solution. Do not use an
excessive amount of water that would enter the unit and damage electrical components.
Line Section
Clean the line section connectors and elements with a dry cleaning solvent. Use a clean cloth to clean the mating
surfaces of the larger line sections and a cotton swab stick for the smaller connectors, elements, and line section
element socket. Clean all mating surfaces thoroughly, especially the bottom shoulder of the element socket and the
spring contact finger.
Customer Service
Any maintenance or service procedure beyond the scope of those in this chapter should be referred to a qualified
service center.

safety precautions. Many dry cleaning agents emit toxic fumes that may be harmful to
your health if inhaled.
