Cleaning the Micron Sensor Over time, the vacuum sensor of the SMAN may become contaminated with dirt, oil, and other contaminants from pulling vacuums.
- Never use an object such as a cotton swab to clean the sensor, you may cause damage to the sensor.
- Open all valves and cap all the ports except for the VAC port.
- Drop enough Isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol into the VAC port using an eye dropper or funnel so that it can flush out contaminants.
- Cap VAC port and gently shake your SMAN460 upside down to clean sensor.
- Turn right side up. Open a port to pour out the rubbing alcohol and open all ports to allow sensors to dry out. Drying usually takes about an hour.
