Safety Instructions

Description

The individual modules fulfill the highest requirements for observation and docu- mentation of Leica stereomicroscopes of the M series.

Intended use of instrument

Leica Microsystems microscopes are opti- cal instruments for improving the visibility of objects or specimens through magnifi- cation. Accessories such as optical acces- sories, stands, illumination, cameras etc. supplement the equipment configuration.

Non-intended use

Using the instrument in any way contrary to the specifications in the User Manual can lead to bodily harm and damage to objects. Never use microscopes for in vivo examina- tions or eye surgery if they are not expressly intended for such use. Never install any other plug or unscrew optical systems

and mechanical parts unless expressly instructed to do so in the instructions.

The instruments and accessories described in this User 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 instrument or noncompliant use shall void all rights to any warranty claims as well as product liability and the Declaration of Conformity.

Place of use

Only use the instruments in closed, dust free rooms and between +10 °C and +40 °C. Protect the devices from oil, chemi- cals and extreme humidity. If using the devices outdoors, protect them from dust and moisture. Never use electrical devices outdoors.

Electrical components must be placed at least 10 cm away from the wall and away from flammable substances.

Avoid large temperature fluctuations, direct sunlight and vibrations. These condi- tions can distort micrographic images, for example.

In warm and warm-damp climatic zones, the individual components require special care in order to prevent the build-up of fungus.
