Care of the instrument
Warning
Disconnect the power cable before cleaning.
Cleaning optical components
The multilayer T* (T star) antireflection coating of the optical compo-
nents (e.g. eyepieces and objectives) results in excellent image quality.
Even slight contamination of the optics or a fingerprint will impair
image quality. In order to protect internal optical elements from dust,
never store the instrument with objective, binocular tube or eyepieces
removed. After use, cover the instrument to protect it from dust.
Always store objectives, eyepieces and accessories that are not being
used in dust-free cases.
The external surfaces of optical components (eyepieces, objectives), can
be cleaned as required:
• Dust on the optical surfaces can be removed using a squeeze blower
or a clean, grease free brush.
• Thorough cleaning can be performed quickly and easily using a
moist, anti-static cleaning cloth.
Please follow the instructions on the cleaning cloth packaging.
This will enable you to maintain the high image quality of your
product.
Cleaning of painted surfaces
All painted surfaces can be cleaned with a damp cloth.
Do not use aggressive or abrasive cleaning agents.
Use spray or wipe disinfectants for cleaning and disinfecting the
instrument case, foot switch, chin rest and forehead strap.
The display should be cleaned with a lightly moistened cloth only.
Ensure that no moisture penetrates the instrument during cleaning and
disinfection.
Paper pads should be replaced after each patient.
