If the product is used in a manner not specified by this manual, the safety of the user may be imperiled. In addition, the

product may also be damaged. Always use the product according to this instruction manual.

The following symbols are used in this instruction manual.

CAUTION : Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in

minor or moderate injury.

NOTE

: Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in

damage to the product or other property.

TIP

: Indicates the useful knowledge or information for use.

CAUTION - Installation of the product -

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 product which may have contacted the specimens which have potentiality of infection, wear

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

After observation, clean the portions where specimens contacted directly.

Remove the specimen when moving the product.

When moving this product, 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 product, follow the regulations and rules of your local government.

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

regulations and rules of your local government.

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

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

CAUTION - Light from the objective -

Do not look directly at the light coming out from the objective or the light reflected from the specimen.

Be careful about the light coming out from the objective, since not only visible light but also light of invisible

wavelengths (such as ultraviolet and infrared) may be emitted depending on the illumination methods.

Safety precautions

CAUTION - Prevention of infection -

CAUTION - Electric safety -

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

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

Compatibility) performance of the product cannot be assured. If no power cord is provided, please select the proper

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

Always connect the ground terminal.

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

intended electric safety and EMC performance of the product cannot be assured.

Do not use this product near the sources of strong electromagnetic radiation.

Proper operation may be interfered. Be sure to evaluate the electromagnetic environment before operating the product.

Disconnect the power cord in case of emergency.

In case of emergency, disconnect the power cord from the power cord connector of the product or from the power

outlet.

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

disconnect the power cord immediately.

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

CAUTION - LED (light emitting diode) -

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

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

adjustment knob before continuing the observation. The LED built in this product is basically eye-safe. However, do not

look directly at the light from LED for a long time while feeling too bright, since it may cause damage to your eyes.

CAUTION - Safety symbols -

The following symbols are attached to the product.

Study the meaning of the symbols and always use the product in the safest possible manner.

Symbol Meaning

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

or in the instruction manual.

1. Be careful not to apply the impact or let the dirt/dust attached to the microscope when carrying it.

2. Do not use the product in areas where it may be subjected to direct sunlight, high temperature and/or humidity, dust or

vibrations. (For conditions of operating environments, see “7 Specifications” on page 25.)

3. When installing the microscope, assure sufficient space around the microscope.

4. When carrying this microscope, disconnect the AC adapter from the microscope, and store the AC adapter and the power

cord in the microscope frame. Then, hold both sides of the arm as shown in the lower left picture, and carry it carefully. Then,

hold both sides of the arm a as shown in the picture on the left, and carry it carefully. (For procedures to store the AC

adapter and the power cord, see “Storing the AC adapter and power cord” on page 32.)

Handling precautions

·This product 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.

·The objectives are screwed in tightly to prevent them from

being loosened during transportation. When removing the

objective, rotate it in the arrow direction as shown in the

picture on the left using the slip prevention rubber sheet,

etc.

·Be sure to use the specified objectives (objectives

provided with the microscope frame and CX-Plan series).

If incorrect objectives are combined, the performance

cannot be delivered.

·The tube of this microscope is removable, but do not

attach the tube of other microscopes.

NOTE

·Do not hold the stage b or the tube c, since they may

be damaged.

·When carrying the microscope, be sure to remove the

specimen and filters in advance, since they are in a risk of

falling. Also, be careful not to touch the objective.

·Do not carry the microscope keeping the AC adapter

connected to the microscope. The AC adapter or the

microscope may be damaged by hitting the output

connector of the AC adapter.

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

objective.

NOTE

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). Only when 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, the electrical equipment that

is switched ON and OFF may cause the ignition of a fire. Also, always use absolute alcohol only in a

well-ventilated room.

2. Wipe the portions other than the lens with a dry soft cloth. If the dirt cannot be removed by dry-wiping, moisten a soft

cloth with diluted neutral detergent and wipe the dirty surface with it.

Do not use organic solvents because they may deteriorate the coated surface or plastic parts.

3. After using this product, store it in a dry place or cover it with a dust cover. If you need the dedicated dust over (made

by Olympus), contact Olympus.

Do not use a highly sealable cover, such as a plastic bag, etc. as a dust cover. The humidity in the

microscope may increase to damage the product.

4. When disposing of this product, be sure to follow the regulations and rules of your local government. Contact Olympus

for any questions.
