• Consult your local dealer before using the instrument under special conditions such as long periods of
continuous use or high levels of humidity. In general, special conditions are treated as being outside the scope
of the product warranty.
Maintenance
• Wipe off moisture completely if the instrument gets wet during survey work.
• Always clean the instrument before returning it to the case. The lens requires special care. First, dust it off
with the lens brush to remove tiny particles. Then, after providing a little condensation by breathing on the
lens, wipe it with the silicon cloth.
• If the display is dirty, carefully wipe it with a soft, dry cloth. To clean other parts of the instrument or the carrying
case, lightly moisten a soft cloth in a mild detergent solution. Wring out excess water until the cloth is slightly
damp, then carefully wipe the surface of the unit. Do not use any alkaline cleaning solutions, alcohol, or any
other organic solvents on the instrument or display.
• Store the instrument in a dry room where the temperature remains fairly constant.
• Check the tripod for loose fit and loose screws.
• If any trouble is found on the rotatable portion, screws or optical parts (e.g. lens), contact your local dealer.
• When the instrument is not used for a long time, check it at least once every 3 months.
