Cleaning
The detector can be cleaned with a soft damp cloth. Do not use solvents, soaps or polishes. A neutral cleaner, like Mat &
Table Top Cleaner (by ACL Staticide) may also be used.
The sensor screen may be cleaned with a soft brush under clean, warm water. Return the filter to the detector once it
has fully dried.
Hibernation (SGC Plus Only)
When the SGC Plus is not used for extended period of time it can be hibernated to suspend the 24 month operation life
countdown.
