CHAPTER 6
Helpful Hints
How to clean the electronic cell
• To assure optimum performance the cell should be cleaned every one
to two months.
• Use a large enough container, such as a laundry tub or trash container.
Dissolve detergent in warm water to cover the cell. After the detergent
has completely dissolved, place the cell in the container. Allow the cell
to soak for 15~30 minutes and rinse with clean water. Tough residue
such as tar from tobacco smoke may need longer soaking.
• After cleaning, make sure to rinse detergent residue thoroughly out of
the ceramic insulators of the cell. Dry the cell thoroughly with heat gun
before reinstalling.
