Maintenance - Vehicle Mounted Devices
Check the vehicle mounting hardware frequently and re-tighten if necessary.
If the vehicle mounting hardware and connections become broken, loose or cracked, the assembly must be taken out of service
and replaced. Contact Technical Assistance (page 11-1) for help.
Cleaning
Do not use paper towels or harsh-chemical-based cleaning fluids since they may result in damage to the Thor VM2 surfaces,
cables, connectors and mounting hardware.
Use a clean soft cloth to wipe any dirt, moisture or grease from the Thor VM2, connectors, cables or the vehicle mounting hard-
ware. Do not use any liquid to clean the Thor VM2, or connectors. Spray or dampen the cleaning cloth with the cleaning liquid.
If possible, clean only those areas which are soiled. Lint/particulates can be removed with clean, filtered canned air.
