Handling of This Product
1. Handle with care.
This product is a precision optical instrument. Handle this product carefully to avoid shocks and vibra-
tions. In particular, the precision of the objectives, filter cubes, and LED lamphouse could be affected
even by minor shocks.
2. Electromagnetic environment
Before using this product, Nikon recommends evaluating the electromagnetic environment of the
installation site.
Do not use this product near strong electromagnetic radiation sources (example: unshielded intentional
RF sources). They may interfere with the proper operation of this product.
This product emits low-level electromagnetic radiation. Do not install this product near precision elec-
tronic devices. Otherwise, the performance of such devices might be degraded. If TV or radio reception
is affected, move the TV or radio farther away from this product.
This product complies with requirements of EMC directive (2014/30/EU) and IVD directive (98/79/EC).
• Achieve electromagnetic compatibility to ensure satisfactory operation of the product.
This product is tested and in conformity with FCC regulations (FCC Part15 Subpart B: Radio Fre-
quency Device (commercial and industrial areas)).
• Use this product only in the commercial or industrial area. Using this product in the residential area
may affect other devices.
3. Scratches and dirt on optical components
Any scratches or dirt (such as fingerprints) on optical components such as lenses and filters will de-
grade the microscope image. Take care not to scratch or stain optical components. If they become dirty,
clean them according to the procedure in “Chapter 6 Maintenance and Storage of the Device.”
4. Installation location and storage location
This product is a precision optical instrument. Use or storage of this product under inappropriate
conditions might result in malfunction or loss of precision. For details on the temperature and humidity
at the installation location and storage location, see “8.3 Physical Properties.” The following conditions
must also be considered:
• Install and store this product in a splash-, dust-, and vibration-free location.
Place a cover over this product when storing it, so as to protect it from dust.
• Install and store this product on a level and suitably sturdy desk or table.
Install this product in a location with minimal exposure to hazards in the event of an earthquake or
other potential disaster. If necessary, secure this product to the working desk (or other heavy and
stable object) by a strong wire or similar means, so as to prevent this product from tipping over or
falling off the desk.
• Install this product in a location where the power cord can be unplugged immediately from the AC
inlet of the AC adapter in case of an emergency.
• Avoid placing this product in direct sunlight or immediately under room lights.
In a bright environment, extraneous light entering the objective will degrade image quality. Extrane-
ous light from a room light immediately above the microscope might also enter the objective. In this
case, Nikon recommends turning off the room light immediately above the microscope before use.
• Install this product at least 10 cm away from nearby walls.
• Do not use this product on a desk mat or similar item.
• Do not install this product in a closed space such as a locker or cabinet.
5. Port protection
After mounting the tube, nosepiece, FL turret, and other unit, attach the provided caps to the ports,
slider slot, and objective mounting holes not in use.
This prevents extraneous light and dust from entering the product.
