repairs and cleaning of any kind, please contact your local specialized service center.
• Protect the device from sudden impact and excessive mechanical force.
• Do not touch the optical surfaces with your fingers. To clean the telescope exterior, use only spe-

• Store the device in a dry, cool place away from hazardous acids and other chemicals, away from

• Replace the dust cap over the front end of the telescope whenever it is not in use. This prevents
