· Revision of instructions and operating issues of the unit.
· Revision of the safety mechanisms.
· Dusting the circuit board.

PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE.
A record should be kept of each element repaired or substituted as well as of all maintenance and repairs.
The surface of the exterior panels may be cleaned with a soft cloth and non-abrasive cleaner.
