Cleaning the Sensor Cap

1. Leave the cap and nose cone on the sensor!
2. Rinse the sensor with clean water from a squirt bottle or spray bottle.
3. Gently wipe with a soft-bristled brush or soft cloth if biofouling is present. Use Alconox
remove grease.
4. If extensive fouling or mineral build-up is present, soak the cap end in vinegar for 15 min.,
then soak in deionized water for 15 min.
Do not use organic solvents—they will damage the foil.
Do not remove the cap from the sensor prior to brushing.
5. After cleaning the sensor, perform a 1-point user calibration or calibration check.
