Cleaning the Pyro Sensor
The pyro sensor must be clean at all times for optimum performance. If the pyro sensor appears to have any dust, dirt or fingerprints on it, then it should be cleaned.
1.To clean the pyro, use a soft cotton cloth (not a tissue), which has been dampened with Methylated Spirits (Alcohol).
2.Gently wipe across the window of the pyro sensor with the dampened cloth.
Be sure not to touch the pyro sensor with your fingers.
Cleaning the Case and Lens
Detectors are often left in position for long periods and spiders or other pests might stay around the detector. It is important that the lens, especially, is kept clean of any spider webs or pests from being in front of it. It is recommended to keep the whole case clean by wiping over it with a soft cloth to remove dust, pests or other obstructions as required. This will also reduce the risk of a false alarm due to pests. Do not spray on or near the lens with insect/repellent spray. Remember not to move the position or angle of the detector as it may affect the performance of the detector. If in doubt, carry out a walk test to ensure the detector is operating correctly.
