Cleaning and maintenance

The blood pressure monitor and the cu can be wiped with a soft cloth moistened with
a mild detergent and wiped dry with a soft, dry cloth or paper towel. Never use strong,
caustic detergents as these may cause damage to the synthetic parts. Also, never use
diluents, alcohol or kerosene to clean the device.
