Always disconnect the power cord from your microscope before handling the LED bulb and power unit and allow
the system approximately 35 minutes to cool down to avoid burns
• Never touch the LED with your bare hands
• Dirt or fingerprints will reduce the life span and can result in uneven illumination, lowering the optical
performance
• Use only Euromex original replacement LEDs
• Use of other products may cause malfunctions and will void warranty
• During use of the microscope, the power unit will get hot; never touch it while in operation and allow the
system approximately 35 minutes to cool down to avoid burns

• Dirt on, or inside the optical components, such as eyepieces, lenses, etc., affects the image quality of your
system negatively
• Always try to prevent your microscope from getting dirty by using the dust cover, prevent leaving fingerprints
on the lenses and clean the outer surface of the lens regularly
• Cleaning optical components is a delicate matter. Please read the cleaning instructions in this manual carefully

• This product is a precision instrument and it should be used in a proper environment for optimal use
• Install your product indoors on a stable, vibration free and level surface
• Do not place the product in direct sunlight
• The ambient temperature should be between 5 to +40°C and humidity is maximum 80% at 31 degrees
decreasing linearly to 50% at 40 degrees. Although the system is anti-mold treated, installing this product in a
hot, humid location may still result in the formation of mold or condensation on lenses, impairing performance
or causing malfunctions
• Never turn the right and left focus knobs in opposite directions at the same time or turn the coarse focus knob
past its farthest point, this will damage the microscope
• Never use undue force when turning the knobs
• Make sure that the microscope system can dissipate its heat
• Keep the microscope approximately 15 cm free from walls and obstructions
• Never turn the microscope on when the dust cover is in place or when items are placed on the microscope
• Keep flammable fluids, fabric etc. well out of the way
