damage to the equipment or other property.

} : Indicates commentary (for ease of operation and maintenance).

Safety precautions

CAUTION - Prevention of infection -

Wear protective equipment such as gloves, etc.

When you observe the specimens which have potentiality of infection, wear protective equipment such as gloves, etc.

to prevent the specimens from touching your skin directly.

When you maintain the device which may have contacted the specimens which have potentiality of infection, wear

protective equipment such as gloves, etc., or clean the device before operation.

After observation, clean the portions where specimens contacted directly.

Remove the specimen when moving the device.

When moving this device, be sure to remove the specimen first, since it is in danger of dropping and spattering.

In case the specimen is damaged, promptly take the infection prevention measures.

When disposing of the device, follow the regulations and rules of your local government.

When disposing of the device which contacted the specimens which have potentiality of infection, follow the

regulations and rules of your local government,

CAUTION - Installation of the device -

Install the microscope on a sturdy, level table or bench.

For safety in particular, do not place a mat, etc. under the device.

The following symbols are found on the microscope. Study the meaning of the symbols and always use the equipment

in the safest possible manner.

Symbol Explanation

Indicates a non-specific general hazard. Follow the description given after this

symbol or in the instruction manual.

Indicates that the main switch is ON.

Indicates that the main switch is OFF.

CAUTION -Safety symbols-

CAUTION - Electrical safety -

Always use the AC adapter and power cord provided by Olympus.

If the proper AC adapter and power cord are not used, the electric safety and EMC (Electro-Magnetic Compatibility )

performance of the device can not be assured. If no power cord is provided, please select the proper power cord by

referring to the section “Proper selection of the power supply cord” at the end of this instruction manual.

Ground the device.

Connect the ground terminal of the power cord and that of the power outlet. If the device is not grounded, our intended

electric safety and EMC performance of the device can not be assured.

Do not use the device in close proximity to the sources of strong electromagnetic radiation.

Proper operation may be interfered. The electromagnetic environment should be evaluated prior to operation of the

device.

Remove the power cord in case of emergency.

Install the product at a location where you can reach the power cord connector or the power outlet at hand to remove

the power cord quickly.

This device complies with the emission and immunity requirements described in IEC61326 series.

CAUTION - LED (light emitting diode) -

Do not directly look at the light from the LED unit for a long time.

If you feel that the light from LED units is too bright during observation, adjust the intensity using the brightness

adjustment knob and continue observation. The LED built in this product is basically eye-safe. However, direct viewing

the light from the LED unit for extended time in the state you feel dazzling may cause damage to the eyes.

1. Handle the microscope with care when you carry it, and avoid

subjecting it to severe impact or dirt.

2. Do not use the microscope where it is subjected to direct sunlight,

high temperature and humidity, dust or vibrations. (For the conditions of

operating environments, see “7 Specifications” (p.18))

3. Make sure to adjust the rotation tension of the coarse adjustment

knob with the tension adjustment ring. Please refer to page 9 for the

adjustment method.

4. When installing the microscope, be sure to leave enough space

around the AC adapter if the AC adapter is not stored in the

microscope.

5. When carrying this microscope, remove the AC adapter or store the

AC adapter and the power cords into the microscope. Then, hold

both sides of the arm hole as shown in the picture on the left and

carry the microscope carefully. It is easier to hold the arm hole by

putting the ball of your fingers at the finger contact area c shown in

the picture on the left. For procedures to store the AC adapter and the

power cords, refer to “9 Assembly” (p.20).

·Do not hold the stage a or observation tube b , since they

may be damaged. Also, when you carry the microscope,

remove specimens or filters in advance. Otherwise, they

may be dropped.

·When carrying the microscope, be careful not to hit the

output connector of he AC adapter. The AC adapter or the

microscope may be damaged.

·When carrying the microscope, be careful not to touch the

objective.

CAUTION

This product has been designed to be used to observe magnified images of specimens in various routine work and

research applications.

This includes the observation of living cells or of specimen taken from tissues to gain physiological or morphological

information at hospitals or laboratories. Typical field of applications are genetics, human blood and tissue examination,

neurology, pharmacology and cellular biology.

Do not use this instrument for any purpose other than its intended use.

This product complies with the requirements of directive 98/79/EC concerning in vitro diagnos-

tic medical devices. CE marking means the conformity to the directive.

Intended use

Handling precautions

·This microscope is a precision instrument. Handle it with

care and avoid subjecting it to a sudden or severe impact.

·Never disassemble any part of the product. Otherwise,

failure could be caused.

CAUTION

1. Do not leave stains or fingerprints on the lenses and filters. If they get dirty, blow away dust with a commercially

available blower and gently wipe the lens or filter with a piece of cleaning paper (or clean gauze). For cleaning

fingerprints and oil stains, slightly moisten a piece of cleaning paper with commercially available absolute alcohol

and wipe them off with it.

Since the absolute alcohol is highly flammable, it must be handled carefully. Be sure to keep it away

from open flames or potential sources of electrical sparks. For example, electrical equipment that is

being switched on or off could cause ignition of a fire. Also remember to always use absolute alcohol

only in a well-ventilated room.

2. Use a diluted neutral detergent to clean the parts other than the glass components. Moisten a soft cloth with diluted

neutral detergent and wipe the surfaces of the parts. Do not use organic solvents to clean the parts other than the

glass components, since it deteriorates painted surfaces or plastic parts.

3. When not using the product, store it in a dry place or cover it with a dust cover. Please purchase the dedicated dust

cover (made by Olympus) at the sales office.

Do not use a cover with a high sealing performance, e.g. plastic bags, etc. as a dust cover. The

humidity inside the microscope may rise and may be damaged.

CAUTION

4. When cleaning the condenser, move the lever a to the left end,

lower the condenser with the condenser up/down knob b, and

remove the condenser. Then, clean the upper lens area. When

attaching the condenser, engage the condenser to the condenser

attaching part and push the engaged part upward until it touches the

top.

This condenser is not compatible with other microscopes.

Do not use this condenser with other microscopes.

5. When disposing of this product, be sure to follow the regulations and

rules of your local government. For any question, contact the sales

office you have purchased this product.
