Fiber Optic Care
Proper care and handling will insure the maximum lifetime from the fiber optic temperature probe.
• Store the fiber optic probe in a secure place when not in use.
• Do not leave the probe attached to the ceiling connector. If left inside the cavity, probes can be damaged or
broken by accidental contact.
• Remove any liquid or debris that gets on the probe with a wet paper towel. Start at the base of the connector
and gently pull toward the tip. Dry the probe before the next use.
