Cleaning Detector Ports
Regular cleaning of detectors will help maintain measurement accuracy.
To clean detector ports:

2. Being careful not to touch the soft end of the swab, moisten a cleaning
tip with only one drop of isopropyl alcohol.
3. While applying light pressure, gently rotate the cleaning tip on the
detector window.
