Replacing the Fuse
The Mx3000P and Mx3005P instruments use a single slow-acting fuse. The
fuse housing is located adjacent to the power cord inlet in the power entry
module. See Installing the Fuse in Setting Up the System for pictures of the
fuse housing unit.
To replace the fuse, disconnect the instrument from the power source, open
the fuse housing cover and remove the fuse holder from the power entry
module. Replace the fuse with the appropriate fuse type from the table
below and then replace the fuse holder.
Warning High voltage present. Turn off the power switch and remove
the power cord from the power entry module prior to
replacing the fuse.

Cleaning the Instrument
Clean the exterior housing of the Mx3000P and Mx3005P systems using
only mild soap and warm water on a soft cloth. Do not use alcohol or
solvent-based cleaners. The wells of the thermal block should be cleaned
with cotton swabs and isopropyl alcohol. Ensure that the block is at room
temperature before cleaning.
