Take a new, dry soft-tissue and remove the water, by rubbing gently
over the surface using a small circular movement.
5
Blow away remaining lint with compressed air.
Alternative Procedure A
To clean lenses that are extremely sensitive to mechanical stress or
pressure you can also use an optical clean polymer film. This
procedure is time-consuming, but you avoid scratching or destroying
the surface.
1
Put the film on the surface and wait at least 30 minutes to make
sure that the film has had enough time to dry.
2
Remove the film and any dirt with special adhesive tapes.
Alternative Procedure B
If your lens is sensitive to water then:
1
Moisten the lens or the mirror with isopropyl alcohol.
2
Take a new, dry soft-tissue and remove the alcohol, dissolved
sediment and dust, by rubbing gently over the surface using a small
circular movement.
3
Blow away remaining lint with compressed air.
Other Cleaning Hints
Selecting the correct cleaning method is an important element in
maintaining your equipment and saving you time and money. This
Appendix highlights the main cleaning methods, but cannot address
every individual circumstance.
This section contain some additional hints which we hope will help

Making the connection
Before you make any connection you must ensure that all lightwave
cables and connectors are clean. If not, then use appropriate the
cleaning methods.
When you insert the ferrule of a patchcord into a connector or an
adapter, ensure that the fiber end does not touch the outside of the
mating connector or adapter. Otherwise, the fiber end will rub up
against something which could scratch it and leave deposits.
