Cleaning and Drying

• Blow dust off lenses and prisms.
• Never touch the glass with your fingers.
• Use only a clean, soft, lint-free cloth for cleaning. If necessary, moisten the cloth
with water or pure alcohol. Do not use other liquids; these may attack the
polymer components. For cleaning the Flat prism pure alcohol is not allowed.
Reflector prisms that are cooler than the ambient temperature tend to fog. It is not
enough simply to wipe them. Keep them for some time inside your jacket or in the
vehicle to allow them to adjust to the ambient temperature.
• Dry the product, the transport container, the foam inserts and the accessories
at a temperature not greater than 40°C / 104°F and clean them.
• Do not repack until everything is completely dry.
• Always close the transport container when using in the field.
