Maintenance

1. Cleaning the Lens and Probe

After each use, especially in dirty or oily environments, clean the camera lens and probe. Use a soft, lint-free cloth slightly dampened with isopropyl alcohol or a mild lens cleaning solution. Do not use abrasive cleaners or immerse the main unit in liquids.
