1.3 Storage
You should ensure that the device is not exposed to direct sunlight, temperatures
which are too high or too low, vibrations, dust or a high level of humidity.
The ideal temperature range is between 0 and 40°C and a relative humidity of 85%
should not be exceeded.
The device should always be located on a rigid, smooth, horizontal surface.
For devices with pillar stands, the microscope holder must not be rotated back too
far. If you do this, there is a risk that the microscope could tip over.
When the microscope is not being used, you should fit the objective cap and cover
the microscope with the enclosed dust protective cover.
If the eyepieces are being stored separately, the protective caps must be fitted to the
tube connectors. In most cases, if dust and dirt gets inside the optical unit of a
microscope this can cause irreversible errors or damage.
The best way to store accessories which consist of optical elements, such as, for
example, eyepieces and objectives, is in a dry box with desiccant.
