Maintenance
To ensure that the

Handheld Thermal Binocular Viewer is kept in good working
condition and remains fully operational, the following guidelines should be adhered to at all times
Non-optical surfaces
The non-optical surfaces of the camera can be cleaned when required, with a soft cloth dampened
with water and a mild detergent
Optical surfaces
The optical surfaces of the camera lens should only be cleaned when visibly dirty. Care should be
taken to avoid touching the exposed lens surface, as skin acid left behind from fingerprints can be
damaging to coatings and lens substrates. Use only a proprietary lens cleaning tissue
