Basic Maintenance
FLX is designed to be relatively maintenance free,
however a few simple steps can prolong the life of your
hardware.
Internal battery
The internal battery keeps the console’s time & date
correct, and requires replacing every 3 - 5 years. The
console should give you a warning at startup if the battery
is running low, however it is good practice to replace it
after this length of time anyway. Please contact a Zero 88
support agent for details on servicing the console.
Cleaning the surface
Every month or so, gently wipe down the front panel with a
nonabrasive, non-corrosive surface cleaner applied with a
soft cloth.
Cleaning the faders
A can of compressed air can be used to clear our dust
from the fader tracks. Do NOT use an oil based lubricant
(such as WD-40) on faders as this will cause irreparable
damage to your FLX.
Transportation & storage
Care should be taken when transporting FLX. Zero 88 are
able to supply flight cases for the transportation of their
consoles
–
the cardboard box which FLX is supplied in is
intended only for one or two journeys, and should not be
relied upon to keep the console safe for prolonged use.
Operating environments
Always observe the operating environment information in
the Technical Specification. If this environment is
exceeded, it is likely that damage will occur to your FLX.

many of the following pieces of information as possible:
