Chapter 7: Maintenance
General
• In certain conditions, condensation may appear on the LCD
window. This will not harm the unit, and can be cleared by
switching on the illumination for a while.
• Never use chemical or abrasive materials to clean your
ST7000 Plus. If it is dirty, wipe it with a clean, damp cloth.
• Periodically check the cabling for chafing or damage to the outer
casing – replace any damaged cables.
Servicing and Safety
• Autohelm equipment should be serviced only by authorised
Autohelm service engineers. They will ensure that service
procedures and replacement parts used will not affect performance.
There are no user serviceable parts in any Autohelm product.
• Some products generate high voltages, and so never handle the
cables/connectors when power is being supplied to the equipment.
• Always report any problem related to Electromagnetic
Compatibility (EMC) to your nearest Autohelm dealer. We will use
any such information to improve our quality standards.
Product Support
If any difficulties arise with this product, please contact the Autohelm
Product Support department in the UK, or your own national
distributor who will be able to provide expert assistance.
The working parts of the drive system are sealed and lubricated for life
during manufacture – servicing is not required.
Before you consider returning the instrument, make sure that the
power supply cable is sound and that all connections are tight and free
from corrosion. If the connections are secure, refer to the Fault Finding
chapter of this handbook.
If a fault cannot be traced or rectified, please contact your nearest
Autohelm dealer or Service Centre.
Always quote the product serial number, which is printed on the rear
cover, and the software version number, which you can see by
pressing
standby for 4 seconds.
