Cleaning and Maintenance
Before starting any cleaning or maintenance activities:

Unplug the device's power cord from the outlet.
2.
Let the device cool down.
Cleaning
Use normal glass cleaner and a soft cloth to wipe off the outside casing.
Always be sure to dry all parts completely before plugging the unit back in.
Cleaning frequency depends on the environment in which the unit operates (i.e. smoke, fog residue,
dust, dew). It is important to keep the pump clean after use as snow liquid can be corrosive. Empty
the tank from snow liquid, fill with fresh water and switch on the device to let water run through the
pump system for 1 minute.
Do not immerse the device in any liquid.
