Warranty precautions
• To ensure your warranty remains in effect:
– Do not open the camera housing.
– Follow instructions described below.
– Use only optical quality tissue/cloth if you must clean
a lens or filter.
– Use only optics cleaner (60% ethyl alcohol, 40%
ether). Never use aggressive cleaners like benzine or
spirit. Such cleaners may destroy the surface.
– Do not use compressed air which can push dust
into camera and lens.
• AVT does not warranty against any physical damage to
the sensor/filter/protection glass or lenses caused by
the user during the cleaning process.
