CLEANING THE METER
Cleaning the meter from dust and dirt is easy and helps mantaining it in optimal work conditions
through the years. The cleaning procedure is simple and quick and requires only minor attention.
Never use chemical aggressive products (diluent) and/or abrasive or rough clothes which may
damage plastics and displays.
Always use a soft cloth, damped with a simple water and alcohol solution or a de-greasing not
abrasive liquid soap.
Keyboard and display should be gently cleaned. Rubbing the keyboard and/or the display(s) may
seriously damage their functions.
MAINTENANCE AND CARE OF THE METER
This meter has been designed to withstand severe conditions of use. Even so, its life may be
prolonged by respecting some simple and effective rules:
• The meter has not been designed to withstand high temperatures (over 60°C or 140° F). Those
temperatures can be easily reached when the meter is left in a car, especially behind the
windshield, or in the trunk. The LCD display and/or other details may easily be damaged by the
extreme temperature.
• The internal battery may rapidly loose its efficiency if exposed to high or low temperatures. This
will result in reduced autonomy of the meter when powered by internal battery.
• When recharging the internal battery, do allow a good air circulation around the meter and
the adapter: do not cover it with clothes and do not recharge the battery when the meter is
contained in its transport case
• The meter is not waterproof, even if it is protected against incidental water drops. In case of
contact with water, electronic circuits may be damaged, allow the meter to dry thoroughly
before trying to turn it on. Do not use hairdryer or other strong heating sources, but just leave the
meter in quiet air. If possible, contact Rover Laboratories S.p.A. Technical Assistance.
