Routine Maintenance Procedures

For optimum router performance, perform the following preventive maintenance procedures on a regular basis:

• Inspect the installation site for potential problems caused by moisture, loose wires or cables, and excessive dust. Make sure that airflow around the router and into the air intake vent at the bottom of the chassis front is unobstructed.
• Check the status-reporting devices on the craft interface: system alarms, LEDs, and LCD. See Craft Interface.
• Inspect the air filter at the bottom front of the router, replacing it as needed for optimum cooling system performance. Do not run the router for more than a few minutes without the air filter in place. For replacement instructions, see Maintain and Replace the Air Filter.
