CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
2. Use only a soft cotton cloth to clean the LCD. Tissues can
scratch the plastic, causing damage.
3. Use moist Kimwipes or soft cotton cloth to clean the rest of
the outer case.
4. Begin each step cleaning the chamber and thermopile sensor
using a new Kimwipe strip wrapped around the plastic swab
included in your kit. If you have spilled sample material on
the sensor filter and it does not come off replace the filter as
explained in the next section. It is important that contamina-
tion of this filter is minimized, as the relative humidity of the
sample is measured via the filter.

Sensor Filter Cleaning/Replacement
You may periodically need to replace the porous white humidity
sensor filter if it becomes dirty. To remove the sensor filter use a
knife or needle point to gently pry up the edge of the filter. Your
Pawkit shipped with three spare filters and you can order more by
contacting METER through email at [email protected] or
