8.2.1 Cleaning the reading window
Important Electrostatic charges cause dust particles to stick to the reading window. This effect can be
combated by using anti-static SICK synthetic cleaner (no. 5600006) in combination with a
SICK lens cloth (no. 4003353).
Cleaning the reading window:
¾ Switch off the device while you are cleaning it (see Laser protection).
¾ Use a clean, soft brush to free the (glass) reading window from dust.
¾ If necessary, additionally clean the (glass) reading window with a clean, damp, lint-free
cloth and a mild, anti-static window cleaning fluid.
¾ Only clean the (plastic) reading window with a clean, damp, lint-free cloth and a mild,
anti-static window cleaning fluid.
