A. Remove the funnel from the unit.
B. Clean outside and inside thoroughly with alcohol or mild soapy water.

- Page 2 If desired, the glass window holder can be removed from the inside channel assembly for a more thorough cleaning and visual inspection. Gently push down on the square sliding tube, which spreads the two black clips holding the glass window holder. Take special care not to break the black clips. 3. Counting Tray Clean thoroughly with mild soapy water. Do not use alcohol. Step I – Visually Inspect Windows 4. Tray Sensor Located on the KL1 behind the counting tray when the tray is fully inserted. This sensor tells the unit that the tray is properly seated. With the tray removed, clean the sensor window with water. Wipe dry to remove streaks. Tray Sensor Note about the use of mild soapy water versus isopropyl alcohol: Mild soapy water and alcohol both provide appropriate sanitary cleansing. Water leaves fewer streaks than alcohol on a Kirby Lester device's inside glass sensor windows. If streaks are found after cleaning, use just water and wipe dry. In general, prolonged alcohol exposure causes faster wear‐and‐tear on plastic. 5.
