CLEANING, MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE
5.1
Care
The only care required for equipment is as follows:
The instruments are not equipped with any special devices for protection against substances
that are corrosive, potentially infectious, toxic or radioactive, or other substances that could be
hazardous to health. All legal regulations must be observed when handling such substances,
particularly the relevant national accident prevention regulations.
•
Eliminate contaminations on the instrument according to the rules for prevention of accidents.
•
The equipment must be disconnected from the mains supply after use. Protect devices from dust and
moisture with a suitable cover.
•
Never expose equipment to adverse climatic conditions (extreme humidity and temperature) for longer
periods.
The equipment must be disconnected from the mains supply before cleaning. Make sure that
no cleaning fluids are allowed to penetrate to the inside of the device.
Stubborn stains on glass surfaces, e.g. fingerprints and grease stains, are best cleaned with a cotton swab
wrapped round a wooden stick and a small amount of distilled water or non-aggressive cleaning agent.
•
Distilled water: Clean the glass surface with a moist cotton swab using a circular motion from the
center to the edge.
•
Optical cleaning agent, consisting of 15 % isopropanol and 85 % rubbing alcohol (gasoline): Clean
the glass surface with a moist cotton swab using a circular motion from the center to the edge.
•
Remove dust from optical surfaces using a natural hair brush or blow it off with an air blower.
•
Plastic surfaces must be cleaned with a standard cleaning agent (without solvents!).
Stubborn stains can be carefully treated with benzine or spirits.
•
Labels on the components may only be cleaned using a dry cotton cloth.
The plug-in power supply should not be brought into contact with moisture.
•
The plug-in power supply must be disconnected from the mains supply before cleaning.
