5.
Do not paint the sensor (see Figure 5-3 on page 5-3). Paint fumes block the sensor's
breathing membrane and damage the sensor permanently, thus voiding the warranty.
Figure 5-3 - Do Not Paint the Sensor or Clean It With Any Solvent
6.
Do not use hydrocarbon-based compounds near the sensor. Do not clean the sensor
with any solvent or other products (see Figure 5-3 on page 5-3). The volatile fumes

Paint, liquid Teflon, vehicle exhaust, spray can, black pitch, thinner, RTV (Room
Temperature Vulcanization; silicon-based mastic) and solvent.
