Maintenance items
Check that all connectors on the rear panel of the transponder
unit and monitor unit are firmly connected.
Check cabling for damage. Replace if damaged.
Check the ground terminal on the monitor unit and transponder
unit for rust. Clean if necessary.
Confirm that the ground wire on the monitor unit and
transponder unit is firmly fastened.
Dirt and dust should be removed from units with a soft, dry
cloth. For the LCD, wipe it carefully to prevent scratching,
using tissue paper and an LCD cleaner. To remove dirt or salt
deposits, use an LCD cleaner, wiping slowly with tissue paper
so as to dissolve the dirt or salt. Change paper frequently so
the salt or dirt will not scratch the LCD. Do not use solvents
such as thinner, acetone or benzene for cleaning any unit; they
can remove paint and marks and deform the equipment.
