Cleaning

•

Routine Cleaning: Clean the exterior of the device regularly using only a damp cloth. Do not use cleaning agents, as many contain silicones that will damage the combustible sensor, or alcohols that will temporarily influence certain electrochemical sensor readings.

•

Dust and Dirt Exposure: Use a dry, soft bristled brush to remove any dust or dirt that has accumulated on the apparatus, especially at the sensor openings. If there is a buildup of dust or dirt particles remaining in the sensor area after brushing, use a vacuum to remove remaining particles, but maintain at least a 1/2 inch (1.3 cm) distance from the gas detector.

•

Water Exposure: If the apparatus is exposed to water, turn the device sensor side down and gently shake water off the sensor area. Any remaining water can be removed with a clean dry cloth. If the apparatus is submerged in water, perform a calibration before use.
