Care and maintenance
- Do not touch the optical surfaces with your fingers. You can use a soft napkin or a cleaning wipe, dipped in ether or absolute alcohol, to clean lenses. We recommend using special optics cleaning fluids from Levenhuk.
- Abrasive particles, such as sand, should not be wiped off lenses, but instead blown off or brushed away with a soft brush.
- Do not apply excessive pressure when adjusting focus. Keep away from water and high humidity. Do not submerge.
- Protect the device from sudden impacts and excessive mechanical force.
- Store the device in a dry, cool place away from hazardous acids and other chemicals, away from heaters, open fire and other sources of high temperatures. Do not use the device for lengthy periods of time, or leave it unattended in direct sunlight. Always store the device in a special case.
- We recommend keeping the silicate gel packet, included in the kit.
- During long storage, a thin white film may appear on the rubber armor. You can wipe it clean with a clean napkin.
