EQUIPMENT CARE AND CLEANING
Handling the Equipment Properly
When adjusting the microphone position, hold the boom at its
base, not at the microphone end.
Carry the headset by the headband, not by the earpiece, and
never by the microphone boom.
Use both hands to put the headset on or take it off.
Cleaning the Equipment
COM6000BP COMMUNICATOR
®
Remove the battery from the Communicator.
Clean the battery and Communicator with a damp sponge
sprayed with household cleaner. Squeeze excess liquid out of the
sponge before using it.
Clean the metal battery contacts on the battery and
Communicator as follows. Wet the tip of a swab with alcohol and
squeeze the excess alcohol from it. Wipe each contact with the
swab and be certain all the contacts are dry before reinstalling
the batteries.
Foam muffs on headset earpieces can easily be replaced for
sanitary purposes. To order extra foam muffs, call your local
HME sales representative.
Battery Charger
Avoid splashing water or grease on the battery charger.
Clean the battery charger monthly as follows.
Remove all batteries from the battery charger.
Clean the battery charger case with a damp sponge. Wet the
sponge and wring it out so it is damp, not dripping wet. Spray
household cleaner on the sponge (NOT DIRECTLY ON THE
EQUIPMENT). Clean the battery charger with the sponge and dry
it thoroughly.
Wet the tip of a cotton swab with rubbing alcohol and squeeze the
excess alcohol from the swab. Wipe the metal contacts inside
each battery port with the damp swab. Allow the contacts to dry
before placing batteries in the ports.
CAUTION:
Always unplug
the battery
charger before
cleaning it.
