Daily Maint enance
This chapter describes how to maintain the DS-L4. To prolong the performance of the DS-L4, Nikon recommends that you
perform daily maintenance.
19.1
Cleaning Utensils and Consumables
Cleaning utensils
 Soft cloth (non-woven cloth, cotton cloth, or gauze)
*
 Lens cloth
* In a cleanroom, use a cleanroom wiper.
Consumables
 Neutral detergent (only when the product main body is very dirty)
19.2
Cleaning of the Tablet, Cradle, and Display
To clean the tablet main body or cradle, use a dry soft cloth. If the tablet or cradle is very dirty, use a cloth moistened with
water or diluted neutral detergent. If diluted neutral detergent is used for cleaning, remove any residue with a cloth
moistened with water.
If the display panel surface is dirty, use a dry soft cloth or a lens cloth to wipe off the surface gently, taking care not to
scratch the surface with a nail or ring. Never use water or detergent for cleaning.
Notes on cleaning an LCD display or touch panel
Do not rub or forcibly push on the surface of an LCD display or touch panel. Doing so may damage the LCD display or
touch panel. Some wipes or commercially available cleaners may chemically damage the coating of the surface. Do not
use:
 Anything that contains an alkaline component
 Anything that contains a surface-activating agent
 Anything that contains an alcohol component
 Anything that is highly volatile (e.g., thinner or benzine)
 Anything that contains abrasives
19.3
Cleaning a Microscope Camera
When you clean the main body of a microscope camera, make sure that the mount is covered with a mount cap, and then
wipe off stains with a soft cloth. If the product is very dirty, gently wipe stains using gauze moistened with a small amount
of diluted neutral detergent.
Do not use organic solvent (such as alcohol, ether, and thinner) on coated parts, plastic parts, or printed parts. Doing so
may cause surface discoloration or removal of printed characters.
Remove any dust inside the camera mount with an air blower.
Cleaning of the inside of a camera
Use only an air blower to remove dust from inside the camera mount, so as to minimize the risk of contact with internal
components. Especially, never touch the glass filter on the front of the image pickup device.
If you have touched the glass filter of the image pickup device, or accumulated dust on the glass filter cannot be
removed, inquire about cleaning to your nearest Nikon representative.
