Replacing the Diaphragm
Under normal conditions, it is not necessary to remove the rim and diaphragm
for cleaning since the diaphragm can easily be cleaned with an isopropyl alcohol wipe. If, however, it is necessary to remove the rim and diaphragm, carefully follow these instructions:
Rim and Diaphragm Removal:
1. Using the palm of your hand, gently press down on the rim.
2. Twist the rim counterclockwise to remove both the rim and the diaphragm
(See diagram below).
Cleaning the Rim and Diaphragm:
1. Remove the diaphragm from the ring. The diaphragm can be cleaned with
mild soapy water or isopropyl alcohol.
2. Carefully wipe down the chestpiece with isopropyl alcohol, making sure
not to saturate the chestpiece. Excess moisture will damage the electrical
components inside the chestpiece and void your warranty.
Rim and Diaphragm
Reassembly:
1. Once the rim and
diaphragm are completely
dry, place the diaphragm
into the inside of the rim.
2. Position the rim and
diaphragm onto the
chestpiece.Twist the rim
