ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
1.
Clean and/or Disinfect Exterior
Clean the outside surfaces of the system and inside the door after each use.
a.
Turn the pump to STANDBY and unplug the power cord.
b.
Wipe the surface with a cloth moistened with water or isopropyl alcohol.
Note:
Avoid the use of acetone or other solvents that might damage the surface.
c.
Also clean around the door hinges, making sure the door is pushed all the way down
inside the hinges.
d.
Do not spray cleaning liquids into or onto the air vents at the bottom of the system.
2.
Fluid Out and In-Line Air Detectors
Keep the fluid out and air detectors clean and dry. If they become dirty or wet, clean with a
moistened Q-tip and dry. Air detector surfaces are delicate. Use care when carrying out this
procedure.
3.
Power Cord
Inspect the power cord along its length and connectors for cuts and breaks. Replace power cord if
damaged.
4.
Temperature Probes
Keep the probe sensors clean and dry. If they become dirty or wet, clean with a moistened Q-tip
and dry. Use care not to damage the sensor surface.
5.
Fan Guards
Inspect the fan guards, on the bottom of the unit, for debris that might impede air flow. Remove
guards by unscrewing the 4 retaining screws and clean, with soap and water, if necessary. Make
certain the guards are not damaged. Let the fan guards dry before reinstalling.
6.
Vacuum trap
Inspect the vacuum trap. If there is contamination, remove the trap by turning the friction nut
counter-clockwise. Clean the interior surfaces using soap and water. Dry and re-assemble.
