9. SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE
9.1 Cleaning the housing and screen of the camera

Cleaning the housing: to avoid any spattering on the lens, you must close the camera's lens protection flap. Use a cloth
moistened with soapy water or with alcohol.

Cleaning the screen: to avoid scratching, use a soft, lint-free cloth.
WARNING! The camera is not immersion-proof.
9.2 Cleaning the infrared optics
The infrared lens has a very fragile coating.
For this reason, great care must be taken to avoid leaving fingerprints. Insofar as possible, any rubbing of the lens will be avoided.
If there is a dust deposit on the lens, favour non-contact methods, such as compressed dry nitrogen, an air bulb, etc., so as not to
damage the lens coating.
If you must wipe the lens, always start by blowing away any dust as explained above, to avoid scratching by dust wiped across
the surface, then use a special soft, absorbent, lint-free optical lens cleaning paper (such as KIMWIPE).
9.3 Metrological checking
Like all measuring or testing devices, the instrument must be checked regularly. This instrument should be checked at least once
a year.
For checking and calibration, contact one of our accredited metrology laboratories (information and contact details available on
request), at our Chauvin Arnoux subsidiary or the branch in your country.
9.4 Unpacking, re-packing
The mechanical and electrical condition of all of the equipment was checked before dispatching.
When you receive it, carry out a quick check for damage that may have occurred in transit. Should there be any, contact our sales
department immediately and declare your reservations to the carrier.
For reshipping, it is best to use the original packaging.
9.5 Repair
