5. MAINTENANCE
Do not attempt to repair or service your Meter unless you are qualified to do so
and have the relevant calibration, performance test, and service information.

5.1 General maintenance

Periodically wipe the case with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Do not use
abrasives or solvents.
Dirt or moisture in the terminals can affect readings.
To clean the terminals:
- Turn the meter off and remove all test leads.
- Shake out any dirt that may be in the terminals.
- Soak a new swab with a cleaning and oiling agent (such as WD-40).
- Work the swab around in each terminal. The oiling agent insulates the
terminals from moisture-related contamination.
