CARE AND MAINTENANCE
The Pro-Lite is designed and constructed so that only a
minimal amount of maintenance is required. Maintenance
consists of periodic cleaning of the external optical
surfaces. This should be done only when necessary, as
evidenced by degradation in performance of the unit or by
visible contamination on the optics surfaces.
CAUTION: The external optical surfaces are coated glass.
Extreme care must be taken when cleaning
these surfaces to prevent scratching which will
lead to performance degradation.
Surfaces that may be cleaned include the laser output
and receiver apertures and the front and rear HUD lens.
Gently brush loose debris from the optical surface to be
cleaned. Then, using a clean, lint-free cloth or lens
cleaning tissue dampened with low-residue isopropyl
alcohol, gently wipe the optical surface with a circular
motion. A cotton swab may facilitate cleaning of the HUD
lens and the lower surface of the HUD combiner glass.
Repeat the cleaning procedure if necessary.
DO NOT USE A SHIRT OR JACKET TO CLEAN THE
LENS.
Note: During the lifetime of the instrument, scratches,
pits, and stains may occur on the optical surfaces, which
cannot be removed by cleaning. Excess rubbing should
not be used to attempt to clean these marks; further
damage may result. The Pro-Lite will operate satisfactorily
with a limited amount of cosmetic optical defects.
Despite its rugged construction, the Pro-Lite is still a
precision electronic instrument. Some common-sense
handling and storage procedures will help prolong the
useful life of the product.
