4.2 Cleaning
How to clean the unit
Power off the unit and only outside/front shall be cleaned by using a dry, soft cloth. A good choice
would be the microber type of cloth and gently wipe the CA 524 unit on front in order not to scratch
the overlay. If the dry cloth did not completely remove the dirt, do not press harder in an attempt to
scrub it off. If necessary, moisten the cloth by adding a small amount of water with thin solution of
mild detergent and try again. Never use detergent with polish or solvent which can have an impact of
the plastic surface.
