Batteries safety instructions
• Always purchase the correct size and grade of battery most suitable for the intended use.
• Always replace the whole set of batteries at one time; taking care not to mix old and new ones, or
batteries of different types.
• Clean the battery contacts and also those of the device prior to battery installation.
• Make sure the batteries are installed correctly with regard to polarity (+ and -).
• Remove batteries from equipment that is not to be used for an extended period of time.
• Remove used batteries promptly.
• Never attempt to recharge primary batteries as this may cause leakage, fire, or explosion.
• Never short-circuit batteries as this may lead to high temperatures, leakage, or explosion.
• Never heat batteries in order to revive them.
• Remember to switch off devices after use.
• Keep batteries out of the reach of children, to avoid risk of ingestion, suffocation, or poisoning.
Care and maintenance
• Never, under any circumstances, look directly at the Sun through this device without a special
filter, or look at another bright source of light or at a laser, as this may cause PERMANENT
RETINAL DAMAGE and may lead to BLINDNESS.
• Take necessary precautions when using the device with children or people who have not read or
who do not fully understand these instructions.
• Do not try to disassemble the device on your own for any reason, including to clean the mirror. For
repairs and cleaning of any kind, please contact your local specialized service center.
• Protect the device from sudden impact and excessive mechanical force.
• Do not touch the optical surfaces with your fingers. To clean the telescope exterior, use only spe-
cial cleaning wipes and special optics cleaning tools from Levenhuk.
• Store the device in a dry, cool place away from hazardous acids and other chemicals, away from
heaters, open fire and other sources of high temperatures.
• Replace the dust cap over the front end of the telescope whenever it is not in use. This prevents
dust from settling on the mirror or lens surfaces.
• Seek medical advice immediately if a small part or a battery is swallowed.
