12.3.1 Cleaning the cable assembly
1. Before cleaning, inspect the cable for damage. Gently bend and flex all parts of
the cable. Inspect for splits in the sheathing, damage or extreme wear, exposed
wires or bent connectors.
2. Wipe the cable with a cloth slightly moistened (not wet) with one of the approved
cleaning solutions listed below.
3. Gently grip the cable with the damp cloth in the centre of the cable and slide the
cable through the cloth 20 cm at a time until clean. Do not clean the whole length
in one single action as this may cause ‘bunching‘ of the insulation sheathing.
4. Thoroughly wipe off any excess cleaning solution. Do not let the cleaning solution
run into or accumulate in connector openings, switches, or gaps. If liquid gets into
connectors, dry the area with warm air.
