you are cleaning the mirror, since they face each
other in a very small gap. Clean it in the same man-
ner as described above for the mirror.
Thermopile Sensor:
Wrap a strip of Kimwipe tissue around a plastic
cleaning kit spatula and moisten it with water or
alcohol to clean the thermopile sensor. This sensor
must be free of all dirt and lint.

Clean all other portions of the chamber block with a
moist Kimwipe.
Note: Be extremely careful not to damage the fan
blades in the chamber. The fan blades are very frag-

Inside Case:

Remove any debris that may have collected
