This section describes preventative maintenance procedures, how often the procedures need to be
performed, and where further maintenance details can be found.
Caution
Always
disconnect the AC power cable, and switch the Main Breaker to the
off position, before cleaning or servicing the system.
Cleaning
Cleaning the Exterior
Clean exterior surfaces with a dry lint-free cloth or a soft-bristle brush. If any dirt remains, wipe
with a cloth moistened in a mild soap solution. Remove any soap residue by wiping with a cloth
moistened with clear water. Do
not
use abrasive compounds on any part of the ATE Core
Configurations.
Caution
Avoid getting moisture inside the system during exterior cleaning.
Use only enough moisture to dampen the cloth.
Caution
Do
not
wash the front- or rear-panel connectors or switches. Cover these
components while cleaning the ATE Core Configurations.
Caution
Do
not
use harsh chemical cleaning agents; they may damage the system.
Avoid chemicals that contain benzene, toluene, xylene, acetone, or similar solvents.
