Exterior surfaces should be cleaned with soap or mild detergents. Cleaning agents should be

applied with a soft cloth. Do not use solvents or abrasives as they may damage some surfaces.

The air intake filters at the rear of the instrument should be inspected periodically and rinsed or

replaced if they are clogged. Clogged filters may impair the instrument's temperature control and

could damage the TEC.

is clear. Obstructed airflow could impair temperature control and could damage the

TEC.
