4.2 Drawings A C B 5. Maintenance With care, the Chroma-Q Magic Box EtherSwitch 7F will require little maintenance. However, as the unit is likely to be used in a stage environment we recommend periodical internal inspection and cleaning of any resulting dust and cracked oil residue. Do not spray liquids on the front or rear panel. If the front enclosure requires cleaning, wipe with a mild detergent on a damp cloth. www.chroma-q.com Magic Box EtherSwitch 7 User Manual 8 V1.
