Maintenance
The V
ELOCI

requires very little maintenance
to keep it performing well.
Probe tip
Periodically inspect the probe tip to ensure that it is
clean. Dust and oil deposits on the tip and sensor
decrease the accuracy of the V
ELOCI
C
HECK
.
CAUTION
: The V

must be switched
off for cleaning. Do not use high-pressure air,
strong solvents, or brushes to clean the sensor
tip; damage to the sensors could result.
To remove dust, blow it off with a gentle stream of
air or rinse it off with a gentle stream of water. To
remove a combination of dust and oil, rinse the
probe tip in isopropyl alcohol and then blow it off
with a gentle stream of air. Never use heat to dry
the probe.
Allow the sensor to dry thoroughly before use.
