designed to require little maintenance. However, in
order to maintain its performance, you must always
follow these guidelines:
1.
Always handle the device with care. It is not
shock-resistant and should not be banged or
dropped. Treat it as you would any other sensitive optical device.
2.
Always clean the imager head after use with
soap or mild detergent.
3.
Use only alcohol swabs to clean the connections.
4.
Avoid rubbing too hard on the LCD. After use,
wipe the display clean gently with a dry cloth.

is shown in the manual. Doing so will void your
warranty.
