Maintenance
Note: Do not attempt to service the fingerprint reader unless you are a
trained service technician.
Cleaning
Occasionally, the surface of the optical sensor, the keypad and display
window may require cleaning. Since working environments differ, it is not
possible to define when cleaning should be performed, but the following
is a suggested guide.
Item Cleaning Frequency
Keypad and display window
Clean when visibly dirty and hard to read.
See cleaning procedure.
Optical Sensor
Do not over clean. The sensor is designed
to work under greasy or dirty conditions.
Clean if the sensor performance has
degraded to where people are reporting
recognition problems. See cleaning
procedure.
Cleaning the Keypad and Display
To clean the keypad and display use a soft cloth to wipe.
Cleaning the Optical Sensor
To clean the optical sensor:
1. If dusty or gritty, first blow on the sensor surface to clean off loose
particles.
2. Use adhesive tape to clean the surface.
3. Use a non-abrasive soft dry cloth to wipe the sensor surface. Be
careful not to scratch the sensor surface with loose particles (see
Step 1).
CAUTION: Do not use any cleaning solutions, as this could damage the
optical sensor. Also, cleaning solvents that contain alcohol or
other strong substances may discolor or crack the fingerprint
reader cabinet.
