How to clean connector interfaces
Preferred Procedure
Use the following procedure on most occasions.
1 Clean the interface, when no lens is connected, by pushing and pulling
a new, dry pipe cleaner into the opening. Rotate the pipe cleaner slowly
as you do this.
2 Blow away any remaining lint with compressed air.
Procedure for Stubborn Dirt
Use this procedure when there is greasy dirt on the interface.
1 Moisten a new pipe cleaner with isopropyl alcohol.
2 Clean the interface by pushing and pulling the pipe cleaner into the
opening. Rotate the pipe cleaner slowly as you do this.
3 Using a new, dry pipe cleaner and a new, dry cotton swab remove the
alcohol, any dissolved sediment and dust.
4 Blow away any remaining lint with compressed air.
Be careful when using pipe cleaners, as the core and the bristles of
the pipe cleaner are hard and can damage the interface.
