• Retrieving Lost Items: Locating and potentially retrieving small items dropped in inaccessible areas.

7. Maintenance

• Cleaning the Lens: After use, especially in dirty or wet environments, gently wipe the camera lens with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn dirt, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by drying. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Cable Care: Avoid sharp bends or kinks in the cable, as this can damage internal wiring. Coil the cable loosely for storage.
• Storage: Store the endoscope in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
• Water Exposure: While the camera probe is IP67 waterproof, ensure the USB/Type-C connectors and the inline control unit remain dry. If they get wet, dry them thoroughly before connecting to any device.
