Apply Dielectric Grease over SIM Contacts

Note Digi recommends using either the Loctite®LB 8423 Dielectric Grease or Synco Lube®Silicone
Dielectric Grease.
1. Use a sheet of paper or cardboard over the area where you intend to work.
2. Use isopropyl alcohol and a cotton-tipped applicator to gently clean the SIM contacts. Using
isopropyl alcohol requires a well vented environment. Demineralized water can also be used as
an alternative.
3. Once the surface is clean and dry, apply a small amount of dielectric grease in a thin layer over
the contacts. Use a new cotton-tipped applicator to work the grease smoothy over the
contacts. Apply gentle pressure.
4. When the dielectric grease has been applied, insert the SIM into the SIM slot as described
above.
To remove the CORE modem:
1. Remove the anchor screw.
2. Pinch the two vertical sides of the white clip.
3. Slide the CORE modem out of the IX20 device.
