Maintenance 

To ensure that the 

GUIDIR

®

IR529

 Handheld Thermal Binocular Viewer is kept in good working 

condition and remains fully operational, the following guidelines should be adhered to at all times 

 

Non-optical surfaces 

The non-optical surfaces of the camera can be cleaned when required, with a soft cloth dampened 

with water and a mild detergent 

 

Optical surfaces 

The optical surfaces of the camera lens should only be cleaned when visibly dirty. Care should be 

taken to avoid touching the exposed lens surface, as skin acid left behind from fingerprints can be 

damaging to coatings and lens substrates. Use only a proprietary lens cleaning tissue

GUIDIR

®

IR529

 Handheld Thermal Binocular Viewer, it 

is highly recommended that the instrument be calibrated at 12 monthly intervals 

 

Calibration or repair for the instrument can be obtained by either contacting the address/ telephone
