15 PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
The MercuryiTC requires minimal maintenance. It is recommended that the following
maintenance tasks are performed every six months, unless stated otherwise.
15.1 Cleaning the touch-screen
The touch-screen is a sensitive item that is easily scratched. Only use recommended cleaning
products to clean the screen.
1 Switch off the MercuryiTC.
2 Wipe the touch-screen with a soft microfibre cloth to remove dust or any marks. Do not use
solvents or abrasive cleaning products.
15.2 Calibrating the temperature sensor circuits
This procedure calibrates the electronics in each temperature-sensor circuit fitted to the iTC. It
does not calibrate the external temperature sensors.
For each temperature sensor that is configured:
1 Tap the widget on the Home page once to display the Sensor Details page.
2 Tap Calibrate, then wait until the internal calibration routine has completed. This takes
approximately one minute.
15.3 Lubricating the fan
Lubricate the fan every couple of years using a water displacing aerosol lubricant, such as
WD40.
