Cleaning Information

Safety Precautions
304
The following Cleaning Information contains some general
safety precautions, which must be observed during all phases of
cleaning. Consult your specific optical device manuals or guides
for full information on safety matters.
Please try, whenever possible, to use physically contacting
connectors, and dry connections. Clean the connectors,
interfaces, and bushings carefully after use.
If you are unsure of the correct cleaning procedure for your
optical device, we recommend that you first try cleaning a
dummy or test device.
Agilent Technologies assume no liability for the customer's
failure to comply with these requirements.
Please follow the following safety rules:
• Do not remove instrument covers when operating.
• Ensure that the instrument is switched off throughout the
cleaning procedures.
• Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures
other than those specified may result in hazardous radiation
exposure.
• Make sure that you disable all sources when you are cleaning
any optical interfaces.
• Under no circumstances look into the end of an optical
device attached to optical outputs when the device is
operational. The laser radiation is not visible to the human
eye, but it can seriously damage your eyesight.
• To prevent electrical shock, disconnect the instrument from
the mains before cleaning. Use a dry cloth, or one slightly
dampened with water, to clean the external case parts. Do
not attempt to clean internally.
• Do not install parts or perform any unauthorized
modification to optical devices.
• Refer servicing only to qualified and authorized personnel.
