CAUTION
The control box incorporates a lithium ion coin battery used for data backup. This lithium battery has
a service life of about 6 years.
Because the control box incorporates a lithium ion coin battery (CR1220), be sure to check local
regulations for proper disposal procedures when disposing of it.
1. The camera system uses precision components. Handle it with care and avoid subjecting it to a sudden or severe
impact.
2. Do not use the camera near a source of strong electromagnetic waves. Otherwise, the displayed picture will be disturbed
and malfunction or failure may also result.
3. When mounting the camera head on a tripod, attach it by using the DP-TRAD tripod adapter, which is separately available.
4. Do not use the camera system in areas where it may be subjected to direct sunlight, high temperature and humidity, dust
or vibrations. For the operating environment conditions, see Chapter 9, “SPECIFICATIONS” on page 46.
1. To clean the lenses and other glass components, simply blow dirty away using a commercially available blower and wipe
gently using a piece of cleaning paper (or clean gauze).
If a lens is stained with fingerprints or oil smudges, wipe it gauze slightly moistened with commercially available absolute
alcohol.
Since the absolute alcohol is highly flammable, it must be handled carefully. Be sure to keep it away from open
flames or potential sources of electrical sparks -- for example, electrical equipment that is being switched on or
off. Also remember to always use it only in a well-ventilated room.
2. Parts other than the glass components should be cleaned by wiping with a clean cloth. Do not use organic solvents to
remove major stains. Use a soft cloth slightly moistened with a neutral detergent solution.
3. To avoid any degradation in performance, do not attempt to disassembly or modify any part of the system.
4. When not using the camera system, keep it covered with the dust cover provided with the microscope.
If the camera system is used in a manner not specified by this manual, the safety of the user may be imperiled. In addition,
the camera may also be damaged. Always use the equipment as outlined in this instruction manual.
