4.4.2 CLEANING PROCEDURES
CAUTION:
The coating on the demist shield can be damaged if the shield is cleaned while wet, or if it is
cleaned with wet lens paper. Clean the shield only when it is dry, and only use dry lens paper.
CAUTION:
Thoroughly dry each item before placing them into the storage case.
Clean the Spark as follows:
1. Gently brush off any dirt from the unit’s body using a clean, soft cloth.
2. Moisten the cloth with fresh water and gently wipe external surfaces (
except
for glass surfaces).
3. Dry any wet surfaces (
except
for glass surfaces) with another clean, soft, dry cloth.
4. Using a lens brush, carefully remove all loose dirt from the glass surfaces.
5. Slightly dampen a cotton swab with ethanol. Gently and slowly wipe the lenses. Without touching
the lens holders, clean the glass surfaces in circular movements, beginning in the center and moving
out towards the edge. Change the cotton swab after each circular stroke. Repeat until the glass
surfaces are clean.
6. Clean the battery contact surfaces and contact springs with a pencil eraser and/ or alcohol-
dampened cotton swabs.
Clean optional mounting devices with a soft brush (cloth), soap, and water as required.
Clean optional lenses as detailed in items 4 and 5 above (
except
for the demist shield).
