Maintenance and Cleaning

To guarantee consistent, reliable and accurate measurements, the instru
ment should be calibrated on a yearly basis. The customer may however,
determine the service interval based on his or her own experience and
usage.
Do not immerse the instrument in water or other fluids. Keep the housing
clean at all times. Wipe off contamination using a moist and soft cloth.
Do not use any cleaning agents or solvents. Do not open the housing of
the instrument yourself.
