- Disconnect the probe from the mobile device.
- Wipe the probe, strain relief, cable, and connector with one of the recommended liquid saturated wipes for one (1) mintue and until visibly clean.
- Change the wipes as necessary and repeat the above step until the probe is visibly clean.
- To dry the probe, use a soft cloth, blot the lens dry. Do not wipe the lens. Dry the rest of the probe, cable, strain relief, and connector.
