5. 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
Sterilization Procedures below.
If liquid spills on the instrument, turn off the power immediately and wipe
dry.
Do not exchange objectives between instruments unless you know that the
components have been approved and recommended by Life Technologies.
After using, cover the instrument with the supplied dust cover.
IMPORTANT! Never disassemble or service the instrument yourself.
Unauthorized repairs may damage the instrument or alter its functionality,
which may void your warranty. Contact your local EVOS
®
distributor or
contact Technical Support (page 36) to arrange for service.
Objective Lens Care
Clean each objective periodically or when necessary with an optical-grade swab
and a pre-moistened lens wipe (or lens paper moistened with lens cleaning
solution). To avoid scratching the soft lens coatings, use only optical-grade
cleaning materials and do not rub the lens.
Note: To protect all optical components of the instrument, use the dust
cover when the instrument is not in use.
