TESSA matic should be cleaned with a soft brush from time to
time. The lens however should be cleaned only when ab-
solutely necessary, using o soft, clean linen rag, first removing
the dust with a soft brush. The windows of both the exposure
meter and the viewfinder should also be cleaned in this way.

matic and every lens has its serial number engraved on the
mount. A record of both numbers should be kept since this
will be of great value when establishing your ownership in
cases of loss or theft
