Maintenance
Note
The lenses and polarization filters installed on the IDS-1000 must be treated
as high quality optical parts. Use only a standard lens cleaning equipment
for cleaning and protect them from harmful chemicals.
-Exterior cleaning
The exterior of the IDS-1000 may be cleaned or sterilized with isopropyl
alcohol (70% vol.)
Do not use any kind of disinfectants, acetone or chemicals other than
isopropyl alcohol.
-Lens cleaning
Cleaning your IDS-1000/plus lenses should be a regular (although not too
regular) part of any IDS-1000/plus owner's maintenance. The lenses on the
IDS-1000/plus are hard multicoated. Wipe the lenses with using alcohol or
water. Use the lens cleaning cloth exclusively made for the IDS-1000/plus or
other normal lens cleaning clothes.
Lens cleaning fluid:
You may find an alcohol based lens cleaning fluid which is well worth having.
It will help you to lift off fingerprints and other smudges without leaving
streaks on your lens.
Keep in mind that you don't need too much of them at a time. Usually just
a drop or two wiped in a gentle circular motion with a cleaning tissue will
remove marks on a lens or a filter.
Always apply the fluid to a cloth or tissue rather than the lens itself.
Otherwise it can easily leave a mark on.
Good approach is to start with breath and then use fluids for difficult marks
to remove.
-Inside cleaning
Note
When cleaning internal part, never touch the LED & polarization filter.
Clean the magnifying lens in the middle if only it has been contaminated.
Use a lens cleaning cloth or a blower to remove the contaminations.
Polarization filters are coated to protect itself against foreign particles and
