Maintenance

• Cleaning: After each use, especially in damp or dirty environments, gently wipe the probe and lens with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn dirt, a slightly damp cloth can be used, but ensure no water enters the main control unit.
• Storage: Store the endoscope in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Coil the cable loosely to prevent kinks or damage.
• Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or harsh chemicals on any part of the endoscope, as this may damage the materials or optical components.
• Protect the Lens: The lens is the most delicate part. Avoid scratching it. If necessary, use a lens cleaning pen or soft brush designed for optical lenses.
