Notes
The GNS 430 display lens is coated with a special
anti-reflective coating which is very sensitive to
skin oils, waxes, and abrasive cleaners. CLEAN-
ERS CONTAINING AMMONIA WILL HARM
THE ANTI-REFLECTIVE COATING. It is very
inportant to clean the lens using an eyeglass lens
cleaner which is specified as safe for anti-reflective
coatings and a clean, lint-free cloth.
