Help-Secondary mirror blemishes. New 10"LB

Thanks to reading some of the many very informative articles in this forum (some of which related to cleaning of mirrors), I decided to have a close look at the mirrors on my new 10" LB. As the scope is still new the mirrors are still clean, but I noticed these blemishes on the secondary mirror . Refer to attached jpg file.

Some advice and or info regarding these blemishes on the secondary mirror of my nice new 10" LB. would be greatly appreciated.

I plan to contact the store if need be, but would like some facts first. I'm not aware as to the effects they will have on my viewing. At this stage I always blame the poor seeing conditions when I can't get a crystal clear view.

I always bring the scope in after a session, into a warm lounge room, so the moisture from these very damp nights rapidly dries up.

Thanks
Richard
