Instrument Storage
Cover the probe tip with an Ocu-Film Tip Cover for protection.
If the TONO-PEN VET unit is not to be used until a subsequent day, the
instrument and accessories should be replaced in the storage case provided.
If the TONO-PEN VET unit is not to be used for an extended period of time,
remove the batteries from the instrument.
Maintenance Procedures
Maintenance that should be performed on the TONO-PEN VET consists of activities
such as protecting the probe tip, keeping surfaces free of dust and dirt and storing in
a dry and cool place so as not to adversely affect electronic parts, and replacing the
batteries.
Keep the probe tip protected with an Ocu-Film Tip Cover when in use or in storage.
Avoid any contact with the probe tip when not protected by an Ocu-Film Tip Cover.
The probe post must be cleaned only with optical quality compressed gas before the
rst use each day, before instrument storage, in the event of unanticipated readings
or if a “Good” calibration check cannot be obtained. To clean the probe post:
Remove the Ocu-Film Tip Cover.
Spray the compressed gas onto the probe tip for approximately 2 seconds.
Wait 3 minutes to allow the instrument to thermally stabilize.
Cover the TONO-PEN VET unit’s probe tip with a new Ocu-Film Tip Cover.
TONO-PEN VET Body
Avoid any shock or excessive vibration which will damage the unit. Clean with a non-
abrasive, dry cloth.
CAUTION
DO NOT IMMERSE TONO-PEN VET BODY IN FLUIDS. THIS WILL CAUSE DAMAGE
TO THE ELECTRONICS AND VOID THE WARRANTY.
Battery Replacement
The batteries need replacing when multiple beeps sound and “Lob” appears on the
LCD upon depressing the activation switch. Occasionally, a noticeable slowing in the
calibration check process or in activating the instrument for taking measurements
may suggest that the batteries need replacing. Always replace both batteries. Do not
mix used and new batteries in the instrument. Reichert OCU-CEL XL batteries are
recommended.
Note: The instrument will not function properly when mercury batteries are used.
