Exterior cleaning
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 that may damage the
chassis.
Clean the On/Standby switch using a cleaning towel dampened with deionized
water. Do not spray or wet the switch itself.
CAUTION. Avoid the use of chemical cleaning agents which might damage the
plastics used in this instrument. Use only deionized water when cleaning the
front-panel buttons. Use a 75% isopropyl alcohol solution as a cleaner for
cabinet parts. Before using any other type of cleaner, consult your Tektronix
Service Center or representative.
Inspection - Exterior. Inspect the outside of the instrument for damage, wear,
