Daily Cleaning Instructions: KL15 Series
Clean the following components at least once daily. Clean more frequently if your pharmacy
dispenses many dust‐generating medications or if you experience counting errors.
Materials: Distilled water, 70% isopropyl alcohol, mild soap (e.g., dish soap), lint‐free cloth or paper
towels. Do not use facial tissue, cotton balls or cotton swabs.
Before starting, turn off the unit and unplug it.
1. Top Funnel
A. Remove the top funnel and channel from the unit.
B. Clean outside and inside thoroughly with mild soapy water or alcohol.
2. Glass Detector Windows
The unit's counting sensors are located behind four glass windows inside the
square funnel hole. Most counting errors are caused by pill dust accumulating
on the edges and corners of the glass windows. Clean the windows well.
A. Wipe off excess pill dust on the four glass windows with a dry cloth.
B. Wet a clean cloth with mild soapy water or alcohol and clean the inside of
the four glass windows thoroughly to remove all remaining dust and residue.
Carefully wipe back‐and‐forth, not up‐and‐down. Do not press hard as this
may break the glass windows.
C. Wipe glass windows dry with clean cloth to remove streaks.
NOTE: If your unit has a clear detector window assembly (not black), clean with eyeglasses cleaner,
not alcohol. Contact Kirby Lester service for questions at 800.243.2465 or service@kirbylester.com.
3. Counting Tray (KL15e, KL15es, KL15i only)
A. Carefully remove the clear plastic tray cover. Clean all parts thoroughly with a water‐
dampened cloth (not alcohol). Wipe dry. Replace the tray cover.
B. Turn the tray over, and wipe the silver sensor strip with a water‐dampened cloth
(not alcohol).
4. Tray Sensor (KL15e, KL15es, KL15i only)
A. (Located on the bottom of the unit in back of the counting tray.) This sensor
detects the tray's silver sensor strip, telling the unit that the tray is properly seated.
B. With the counting tray removed, tip the unit carefully to access the tray sensor.
Clean with a water‐dampened cloth (not alcohol).
