11.1 Cleaning the PostBase mailing system
Warning! Disconnect the power plug before cleaning the PostBase franking

interior of the franking machine. If this happens nevertheless: Have the
franking machine checked by the Customer Support before using it again.
Cleaning the mailing system
• Turn off the mailing system.
• Pull the power plugs of the franking
machine and of all peripherals such as the
feeder out of the wall socket.
