ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
1 Cleaning the Objective
}Clean the object front after completing observation and acquisition.
1. Remove the specimen holder and wipe water attached to the object front using a piece of cleaning paper or clean cloth.
2. If the object front is stained, moisten the cleaning paper or cloth with commercially available absolute alcohol.
2 Refilling/Draining Water in the Incubator
· Check the amount of water in the incubator at proper timing, for example when replacing the specimen, and refill water
as required.
· After completing observation/acquisition, take out the rubber tube from the water reservoir of the incubator without
stopping the CO 2 feed (in order to drain water from inside the rubber tube).
After this, drain water from the water reservoir.
3 Refilling Water in the Objective Water Tank
· Check the water level of the water tank periodically through the water level window, and refill water as required.
· The display shows an alarm when the water amount gets insufficient.
Draining Water from the Water Tank (Figs. 10 & 11)
