It is recommended to clean the sensor when it is dirty. Dust lowers the MSOxx1
performances. The cleaning material for sensor must be a soft material to prevent
scratches. It is advised to clean the sensor after 1000 uses, with a lightly damp rag, to dry
it and to wait a few minutes before starting up again the terminal.
In order to eliminate organic marks, a weekly cleaning is required. In this case, using a rag
moistened with diluted dishwashing liquid is advised.
Scratch materials, alcohol and acids products are forbidden.
