Instructions on Use
The Leica DM500 microscope may be
used only in closed rooms and must be
placed on a solid substrate.
The Leica DM500 microscope can be used in
clean rooms without any problems.
Always position the Leica DM500 micro-
scope so that you can disconnect it from
the power supply at any time. The power cable
must remain accessible at all times, because it is
intended as a power disconnect device.
Place of use
Only use the instruments in closed, dust free
rooms and between +10°C and +40°C. Protect
the devices from oil, chemicals and extreme
humidity. If using the devices outdoors, protect
them from dust and moisture. Never use electri-
cal devices outdoors. Install electrical devices at
least 10 cm from the wall and away from flam-
mable substances.
Avoid large temperature fluctuations, direct
sunlight and vibrations. These conditions
can distort measurements and micrographic
images.
In warm and warm-damp climatic zones,
the individual components require
special care in order to prevent the build-up of
fungus.
Non-intended use
Never install any other plug or unscrew
any mechanical components unless
expressly instructed to do so in the instructions.
The devices and accessories described in
this instruction manual have been tested
for safety and potential hazards.
The responsible Leica affiliate must be
consulted whenever the instrument is
altered, modified or used in conjunction with
non-Leica components that are outside of the
scope of this manual!
Unauthorized alterations to the instru-
ment or noncompliant use shall void all
rights to any warranty claims.
