Cleaning
Clean with a lint-free cloth, moistened with warm water (40°C/104°F maximum) and soap, a diluted
non-caustic detergent, tenside, ammonia- or alcohol-based cleaning agent. Do not use strong solvents
such as acetone or trichloroethylene.
Take extra care when cleaning the screen of the monitor because it is more sensitive to rough cleaning
methods than the housing. Do not permit any liquid to enter the monitor case and avoid pouring it on
the monitor while cleaning. Do not allow water or cleaning solution to enter the connectors of the
Multi-Measurement Server, the measurement server extensions and measurement modules. Wipe
around, not over, connector sockets.
CAUTION To clean the touch-enabled display, disable the touch operation by switching off the monitor during
the cleaning procedure, or by selecting and holding the Main Screen key until the padlock symbol
appears on it, indicating that touch operation is disabled. Select and hold again to re-enable touch
operation. Unplug a mouse before cleaning it. Switch off the monitor to disable an attached
SpeedPoint Device before cleaning the device.
