The SmartPilot computer does NOT contain userserviceable parts. If you remove
the main cover you will invalidate the warranty. The controller is also a sealed
unit, so user maintenance is limited to the following checks

Note:
Do not use chemical or abrasive materials to clean the SmartPilot computer. If the
case is dirty, wipe it with a clean, damp cloth.

Take care when cleaning the display. Avoid wiping the display
screen with a dry cloth as this could scratch the screen coating. If
necessary, use only a mild detergent.
• Never use chemical or abrasive materials to clean the controller. If it is dirty,
wipe it with a clean, damp cloth.
• In certain conditions, condensation may appear inside the display screen. This
will not harm the unit, and you can clear it by switching on the illumination for
a short time.
