Cleaning and Storage

Cleaning the Fluke 43B

Clean the Fluke 43B with a damp cloth and a mild soap. Do not use abrasives,
solvents or alcohol. These may damage the text on the Fluke 43B.

Storing the Fluke 43B

When storing the Fluke 43B, even for extended periods of time, it is not
necessary to remove the battery pack. However, the batteries will gradually
decharge. To keep the batteries in optimal condition, charge the batteries
periodically (once per month).

Cleaning the Current Probe

Periodically wipe the case with a damp cloth and detergent. Do not use
abrasives, solvents or alcohol. Open the jaws and wipe the magnetic pole pieces
with a lightly oiled cloth. Do not allow rust or corrosion to form on the magnetic
core ends.
