3.12 General Maintenance
3.12.1 Caring For The Touchscreen
The top of the touchscreen is a thin, flexible polyester plastic sheet with a conductive
coating on the inside. The polyester can be permanently damaged by harsh chemicals and is
susceptible to abrasions and scratches. Using sharp objects on the touchscreen can scratch or
cut the plastic, or crack the internal conductive coating.
The chemicals listed below must not come into contact with the touchscreen:
• sodium hydroxide,
• concentrated caustic solutions,
• benzyl alcohol, and
• concentrated acids.
If the touchscreen is used in harsh environments, consider applying a disposable screen pro-
tector (model number CH6110). These covers reduce the clarity of the display slightly but
will dramatically extend the useful life of the touchscreen. When they become scratched and
abraded, they are easily removed and replaced.
3.12.2 Cleaning The Ikôn
• Use only mild detergent or soapy water to clean the Ikôn unit.
Important: Do not immerse the Ikôn in water. Dampen a soft cloth with mild detergent
to wipe the unit clean.
