local specialized service center.
• Protect the device from sudden impact and excessive mechanical force. Do not apply excessive pressure when adjusting
focus. Do not overtighten the locking screws.
• Do not touch the optical surfaces with your fingers. To clean the device exterior, use only special cleaning wipes and special
optics cleaning tools from Levenhuk. Do not use any corrosive or acetone-based fluids to clean the optics.
• Abrasive particles, such as sand, should not be wiped off lenses, but instead blown off or brushed away with a soft brush.
• Do not use the device for lengthy periods of time, or leave it unattended in direct sunlight. Keep the device away from
water and high humidity.
• Be careful during your observations, always replace the dust cover after you are finished with observations to protect the
device from dust and stains.
• If you are not using your microscope for extended periods of time, store the objective lenses and eyepieces separately from
the microscope.
• Store the device in a dry, cool place away from hazardous acids and other chemicals, away from heaters, open fire and
other sources of high temperatures.
• When using the microscope, try not to use it near flammable materials or substances (benzene, paper, cardboard, plastic,
etc.), as the base may heat up during use, and might become a fire hazard.
• Always unplug the microscope from a power source before opening the base or changing the illumination lamp. Regardless
of the lamp type (halogen or incandescent), give it some time to cool down before trying to change it, and always change it
to a lamp of the same type.
• Always use the power supply with the proper voltage, i.e. indicated in the specifications of your new microscope. Plugging
the instrument into a different power outlet may damage the electric circuitry of the microscope, burn out the lamp, or
even cause a short circuit.
• Seek medical advice immediately if a small part or a battery is swallowed.
