pressure water. After using any cleaning products, thoroughly rinse all surfaces to remove residue.

spills as soon as possible and regularly clean the cabinet to avoid staining and difficult to clean conditions.
Cabinet Maintenance — All Models
C5 T-Series cabinets have been designed to require very little maintenance. With normal use, cleaning is the only form
of maintenance that need to be done on a regular basis. Keeping the casters free of dirt build-up will go a long way in
prolonging their life.
Regularly inspect the casters. Tighten loose fasteners and replace worn or
damaged parts with new InterMetro approved parts. Replace worn or damaged
casters immediately; lubricate casters regularly.
Top Module Maintenance
The module of the cabinet has also been designed to require very little maintenance. With normal use, cleaning is the
only form of maintenance that needs to be done on a regular basis.
Battery Care (Digital Cabinet Only)
