CAUTION
Do not look into the eyepieces when toggling the con-
trast method!
During the toggling procedure, the maximum
radiant power of the light source may be present on the
eyepieces for a short time and can temporarily blind the
user!

All contrast methods on the automated Leica DMi8 can be
selected and operated via the Touch Screen, the variable
function keys or the LAS X software. The only exceptions
are methods involving components that have to be oper-
ated manually (e.g. systems with manual analyzers). The
following describes operation of the automated Leica DMi8
via the Touch Screen. Refer to the separate instructions for
operation via the software.
