Only use water if you are sure that your device does not corrode.
Do not use hot water as this can lead to mechanical stress, which
can damage your device.
Make sure that your liquid soap has no abrasive properties or
perfume in it, because they can scratch and damage your device.
Do not use normal washing-up liquid as sometimes an iridescent
film remains.
1 Moisten the lens or the mirror with water.
2 Put a little liquid soap on the surface and gently spread the liquid
over the whole area.
3 Wash off the emulsion with water, being careful to remove it all, as
any remaining streaks can impair measurement accuracy.
4 Take a new, dry soft-tissue and remove the water, by rubbing gently
over the surface using a small circular movement.
5 Blow away remaining lint with compressed air.
To clean lenses that are extremely sensitive to mechanical stress or
pressure you can also use an optical clean polymer film. This
procedure is time-consuming, but you avoid scratching or destroying
the surface.
1 Put the film on the surface and wait at least 30 minutes to make
sure that the film has had enough time to dry.
2 Remove the film and any dirt with special adhesive tapes.
If your lens is sensitive to water then:
1 Moisten the lens or the mirror with isopropyl alcohol.
2 Take a new, dry soft-tissue and remove the alcohol, dissolved
sediment and dust, by rubbing gently over the surface using a small
circular movement.
3 Blow away remaining lint with compressed air.
