Maintenance
Lens Cleaning
Use plain water and a soft cloth, or Code 3 lens polish and a very soft paper towel or facial tissue. Because plastic
scratches easily, cleaning is recommended only when necessary (about every six months). Do not subject the
lenses to car washes that use brushes, as these will scratch the lenses.
Lens Removal
First, disengage the lens clips
(4 per lens) as shown in
Figure 6
.
Finally, insert a screwdriver into
the inside edge or corner of the
lens, and twist the screwdriver to lift
the lens.
