General Maintenance
To maintain the measurement performance of your
i1
Pro over its life time, it is important
to observe some rules and to periodically clean certain parts that are critical for
measurement performance.
• The i1Pro device is sensitive to mechanical shocks. To avoid damage during
transport the
i1
Pro must be always shipped in its original packaging.
• Do not store or operate the
i1
Pro device in dirty, greasy or dusty environments. Do
not use the
i1
Pro in environments with temperatures higher than 35°C or less than
10°C. Do not store the
i1
Pro in environments with temperatures higher than 50°C
or less than -10°C.The plastic housing of the device may be cleaned using a cloth
dampened in water with a soap solution if necessary.
• The protection glass in the limiting aperture of the
i1
Pro device may become dusty
after some time. You can remove the protective glass to clean it and the inside of the
limiting aperture:
1. To remove the limiting aperture turn it clockwise until the arrow points to the
“unlocked” position on the
i1
Pro device.
2. Remove the limiting aperture from the device. Avoid touching the optics.
3. Slide the slider with the protection glass out of the limiting aperture.
4. Clean the protection glass and the inside of the limiting aperture with isopropyl
alcohol on a soft clean cloth.
5. Re-assemble the limiting aperture with the protection glass slider. Make sure
that the slider snaps back into its original position.
6. Mount the limiting aperture back on the device with the arrow pointing at the
“unlocked” position on the
i1
Pro device.
7. To lock the limiting aperture turn it counter-clockwise until the arrow points to
the “locked” position on the
i1
Pro device.
• Keep the white reference ceramic tile clean at all times. You can clean the white
reference ceramic tile with isopropyl alcohol on a soft clean cloth if required.
• Do not touch the diffuser disc of the ambient light measuring head. If necessary,
clean it with compressed air.
