■ Follow the directions in this manual on cleaning optical

connectors.

■ Limit the input optical power to no more than 5 dB over-

range.

■ During storage and transport, keep the instrument in its

carry case to protect against crushing, vibration, dust and
moisture.

■ The instrument is resistant to normal dust and moisture,

however it is not waterproof. If moisture does get into the
instrument, dry it out carefully before using it again.

■ Where possible, keep instrument away from strong sunlight.

■ During prolonged storage, remove batteries to eliminate the

possibility of acid leakage. Use only high quality sealed
alkaline batteries.

■ Clean the instrument using alcohol or other non solvent

cleaning agents. Acetone or other active solvents may
damage the case.

■ The instrument housing is made of tough Polycarbonate

material with impact absorbing rubberised corner features,
and is therefore drop resistant.
