3.5 Inspecting the side view mirror adapter
(optional) (for IV8630M)
WARNING
• The distal end of the insertion tube may become hot due to the illumination light or the
internal heating caused by electrical parts. Do not forget to turn off the light source before
attaching or detaching the side view mirror adapter. Touching the distal end immediately after
having turned off light source may cause burn on your skin.

Inspect the mirror surface of the side-view mirror adapter for
contamination. If it is stained, wipe the stain completely away using
the provided lens cleaning kit. When wiping the mirror surface
without removing the adapter from the insertion tube, hold the
combination by the rigid section of the insertion tube.
CAUTION
• The mirror surface of the side-view mirror adapter may be damaged if it is wiped dry. When
removing the stain from the mirror surface, be sure to use the lens cleaning kit provided with
the insertion tube. Also remember that the mirror surface may be damaged if a liquid other
than water or the lens cleaning fluid is attached on the mirror surface.
• The mirror surface of the side-view mirror adapter may be damaged during removal of
metallic powder, sand or mud attached on it. If the mirror surface is contaminated with these
objects, remove the side-view mirror adapter from the insertion tube and wash the objects
away under running water.
• If the mirror surface of the side-view mirror adapter is still stained after it has been wiped
using the lens cleaning kit provided with the insertion tube, do not attempt to force remove
the stain but contact Olympus.
