IV. BASIC MAINTENANCE.

A.

Cleaning the Plastic Domes.

Ordinary cleaning of the plastic domes can be

accomplished by using mild soap and a soft rag. Should
fine scratches or a haze appear on the domes, they can
ordinarily be removed with a non-abrasive, high quality,
one-step automotive paste cleaner/wax and a soft cloth.

 WARNING

The use of other materials such as strong
detergents, solvents, petroleum products,
etc. can cause crazing (cracking) of the
plastic domes. If crazing of domes does
occur, reliability of light for emergency
purposes may be reduced until domes are
replaced.
