Instrument care and maintenance
General care
•
When cleaning optical elements, use only optical-grade materials to avoid scratching soft lens
coatings.
•
Use the appropriate cleaning solutions for each component, as indicated in the Decontamination
Procedures below.
•
If liquid spills on the instrument, turn o the power immediately and wipe dry.
•
Do not exchange objectives between instruments unless you know that the components have been
approved and recommended by Thermo Fisher Scientific.
•
After using, cover the instrument with the supplied dust cover.
Note: Always use the correct power supply. The power adaptor specifications appear on the serial
number label (above ports and plugs on the rear of the instrument) and in the Specifications. Damage
due to an incompatible power adaptor is not covered by warranty.
CAUTION! Never disassemble or service the instrument yourself. Do not remove any covers or parts
that require the use of a tool to obtain access to moving parts. Operators must be trained before
being allowed to perform the hazardous operation. Unauthorized repairs may damage the instrument
or alter its functionality, which may void your warranty. Contact your local EVOS
™
distributor to
arrange for service.
IMPORTANT! If you have any doubt about the compatibility of decontamination or cleaning agents
with parts of the equipment or with material contained in it, contact Technical Support or your local
EVOS
™
distributor for information.
