General maintenance

The instruments are repair-by-replacement units, and the operator is therefore required to
perform only a very limited amount of preventive maintenance.
If the unit requires any form of cleaning, use fresh water and a mild soap solution (not a
detergent). It is important to avoid using chemical cleaners and hydrocarbons such as diesel,
petrol etc.
Always put on the weather cover when the unit is not in use.
Checking the keys
Make sure that no keys are stuck in the down position.
Checking the connectors
The connectors should be checked by visual inspection only. Ensure that cables are
connected correctly and any unused terminals are protected.
