CLEANING
To clean the AIT drive, insert a cleaning cartridge (sold separately) into the drive. Make sure that you insert the cleaning cartridge into the slot CL/8 before you proceed.
Caution
� If there is a cartridge in the AIT drive when you begin cleaning the drive, it is returned to its original slot before the cleaning procedure starts. � If the 2 MAINTENANCE DIP switch at the back of the AIT autoloader is in the off position, you are not notified when cleaning becomes necessary. By default, this DIP switch is in the on position. In this position, you are notified to clean the AIT drive when the AIT autoloader has been online for approximately a week. For details, see �Setting the DIP Switches� (page 19).
