Vacuum the chiller and check the fluid level

Introduction

It is advised to vacuum the chiller every month to keep the printer in the best condition. Vacuuming the chiller is part of periodic maintenance so the operator panel gives a warning when you should vacuum the chiller. Always check the fluid level when you vacuum the chiller.
