sensor elements are located on the inside of
the swivel, approximately 3½ inches/90 mm

should be cleaned periodically. To reach the
sensor elements, use a small brush such as
a bottle brush. Brush each sensor element
several times to remove dust and dirt,

will see a ring. The sensor elements are
located just slightly below this ring.
