8.1 Cleaning
Consider the risk of electrostatic discharge
from your person or cleaning tool when
removing dust deposits.
Cleaning must be performed when the atmosphere is
not potentially explosive. When dust with an MIE of less
than 30 mJ is being extracted, personnel should wear
electrostatic dissipative shoes and clothing.
To avoid damage, the product should be cleaned with a
clean cloth dampened with a neutral detergent.
