Technology TLC - How to keep Your tCheck Device in Tip-Top Shape
The tCheck tray is designed to minimize oil spillage into the tCheck device. However, accidents can happen! Thankfully, spillage clean up is a breeze. In the event that oil escapes the tray and leaks into the tray slot, we recommend you use a Q-Tip to gently wipe the spilled oil. After the oils have been removed, you may continue cleaning your device and tray by using 91%+ isopropyl alcohol on a Q-Tip to clean off any remnants that may remain. Be sure to remove the batteries from your device prior to cleaning.
To minimize potential oil spillage, we recommend you keep your tCheck device on a flat surface while testing is in progress. This will minimize the risk of leakage while keeping your sample safe and secure.
A few things to keep in mind when cleaning your device:
- Do not use any petroleum-based cleaners.
- Do not pour alcohol directly into the slot.
- Do not attempt to disassemble the device as this will invalidate the calibration and void the warranty.
