MANTAINING THE METER
CLEANING THE METER
Cleaning the meter from dust and dirt is easy and helps mantaining it in optimal work
conditions through the years. The cleaning procedure is simple and quick and requires only
minor attention.
Never use chemical aggressive products (diluent) and/or abrasive or rough clothes which
may damage plastics and displays.
Always use a soft cloth, damped with a simple water and alcohol solution or a de-greasing
not abrasive liquid soap.
Keyboard and display should be gently cleaned. Rubbing the keyboard and/or the display(s)
may seriously damage their functions.
MANTEINANCE AND CARE OF THE METER
This meter has been designed to withstand severe conditions of use. Even so, its life may be
prolonged by respecting some simple and effective rules:
• The meter has not been designed to withstand high temperatures (over 60°C or 140°
F). Those temperatures can be easily reached when the meter is left in a car,
especially behind the windshield, or in the trunk. The LCD display and/or other details
may easily be damaged by the extreme temperature.
• The internal battery may rapidly loose its efficiency if exposed to high or low
temperatures. This will result in reduced autonomy of the meter when powered by
internal battery.
• When recharging the internal battery, do allow a good air circulation around the meter
and the adapter: do not cover it with clothes and do not recharge the battery when
the meter is contained in its transport case
• The meter is not waterproof, even if it is protected against incidental water drops. In
case of contact with water, when electronic circuits may be damaged, allow the meter
to dry thoroughly before trying to turn it on. Do not use hairdryer or other strong
heating sources, but just leave the meter in quiet air. Contact as soon as possible
Rover Laboratories S.p.A. Technical Assistance.
• The graphic display is protected by a special glass screen. If hit, this protective
screen may adhere to the actual display, causing a “stain” effect. The result will be a
reduced visibility and blind spots on the screen. It is possible to solve this
inconvenient by applying a strip of mild paper-masking tape to the display and gently
pulling it out. Do not use any kind of strong adhesive tape (electrical tape, duct tape
or even scotch tape) which may leave glue stains on the display. In case of doubt,
please contact Rover Laboratories S.p.A. Technical Assistance.
