Cleaning the In oor Air Quality (IAQ) Sensor
The IAQ sensor is a very delicate instrument that uses light
scattering to detect pollution. It therefore needs a clean lens
to work effectively. Regular maintenance (every 6 months)
should be carried out to keep the lens clean.
Important - Only use pure water and allow to dry completely
before replacing. To avoid damage to the plastic lens do not
use chemicals such as benzene or alcohol etc.
Procedure to maintain and clean the IAQ Sensor:
1. Open the lid of the sensor module
2. Clean lens with a clean cotton swab dampened
with pure water as shown below.
3. Allow lens to dry completely.
4. Close lid.
CAUTION
1. Do not place in direct sunlight.
2. Do not spray water or perfume near the sensor.
