Appendix C: Cleaning
Use these procedures to clean your oscilloscope. If additional cleaning is
required, have your oscilloscope serviced by qualified service personnel.
Clean the exterior surfaces of the chassis with a dry lint-free cloth or a soft-
bristle brush. If any dirt remains, use a cloth or swab dipped in a 75% isopropyl
alcohol solution. Use a swab to clean narrow spaces around controls and
connectors. Do not use abrasive compounds on any part of the chassis.
Clean the On/Standby switch using a dampened cleaning towel. Do not spray or
wet the switch directly.
CAUTION. Do not use chemical cleaning agents that might damage the plastics
used in this oscilloscope. Use only deionized water when cleaning the
front-panel buttons. Use a 75% isopropyl alcohol solution as a cleaner and
rinse with deionized water. Before using any other type of cleaner, consult your
Tektronix Service Center or representative.
To prevent getting moisture inside the oscilloscope during external cleaning, use
only enough liquid to dampen the cloth or applicator.
The display is soft plastic and must be treated with care during cleaning.
CAUTION. Improper cleaning agents or methods can damage the flat panel
display.
Do not use abrasive cleaners or commercial glass cleaners to clean the display
surface.
Do not spray liquids directly on the display surface.
Do not scrub the display with excessive force.
