Care and Maintenance 

 
Your FT-Meter tuner is essentially maintenance-free. The outer case may be cleaned as needed 
with a soft cloth slightly dampened in a mild household cleaning solution. Do not use solvents of 
any kind on the plastic meter face. 
 
As with any modern electronic device, your FT-Meter can be damaged by temperature extremes, 
water, impact or static discharge.
