30X Illuminated (630-0851) Care and Maintenance Faxback Doc. # 15987 Microscope Your Radio Shack microscope is an example of superior design and craftsmanship. The following suggestions will help you care for the microscope so you can enjoy it for years. Keep the microscope dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately. Liquids can contain minerals that corrode the electronic circuits. Use only fresh batteries of the recommended size and type. Always remove old or weak batteries. They can leak chemicals that can damage electronic circuits. Handle the microscope gently and carefully. Dropping it can damage its case and can cause it to work improperly. Use and store the microscope only in normal temperature environments. Extreme temperatures can shorten the life of internal components and distort or melt plastic parts. Keep the microscope away from dust and dirt, which can cause premature wear of parts. When you are not using your microscope, keep it in its case to protect the lenses from possible scratches. Occasionally wipe the microscope with a damp cloth to keep it looking new. Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to clean the microscope. (ALL-07/19/95)
