• If the unit comes into contact with salt spray, simply wipe the affected

surfaces with a cloth dampened in fresh water. Do not use a chemical
glass cleaner on the lens. Chemicals in the solution may cause cracking in

mild cleaner. Do not wipe while dirt or grease is on the lens. Be careful to
avoid scratching the lens.
