General Warning
• Tools with sharp edges and points are often used when working with this device. Because there is a risk
of injury from such tools, store this device and all tools and accessories in a location that is out of the
reach of children.
• This device contains electronic components which operate via a power source (batteries). Only use the
device as described in the manual, or you run the risk of an electric shock.
•
Do not expose the device to high temperatures. Use only the power adapter supplied. Do not short-
circuit the device or batteries, or throw them into a fi re. Excessive heat or improper handling could trigger
a short-circuit, a fi re or even an explosion.
•
Never bend, pinch, pull or run over the power and connecting cables, extensions and adapters. Protect
the cables from sharp edges and heat.
Before operating, check the device, cables and connections
for damage. Never use a damaged unit or a unit with damaged power cables. Damaged parts must be
exchanged immediately by an authorised service centre.
•
Children should only use the device under adult supervision. Keep packaging material, like plastic bags
and rubber bands, out of the reach of children, as they pose a choking hazard.
•
Position your device so that it can be disconnected from the power supply at any time. The wall socket
you use should be located near the device and easily accessible, since the plug on the power cable
serves as a disconnecting device for the power supply.

contact the Service Centre and can send the device in to be repaired, if necessary.

Using the Software CD
Packaged with your new microscope, you’ll fi nd a software CD that contains the driver and image-processing
software. You can install the software on your computer. Then when you connect your microscope to your
computer with the USB cable, you can look at the pictures from the microscope on the computer monitor,
and save them using the CamApp software. You can edit the pictures with the Photomizer software. We rec-
ommend that you always connect your microscope to the same USB port.
Important: Before inserting the CD into your computer, fi rst plug the microscope’s USB cable into the USB
port on your PC. Windows will now recognize the new device and will indicate this in a notifi cation window.
Click on ‘Cancel’, since the driver for the device will be installed automatically later. Now insert the CD that
came packaged with your microscope into the CD/DVD drive of your computer. The installation menu should
start automatically. If it does not, go to the Windows Explorer and select the CD/DVD drive (most of the time,
it’s the ‘D’ drive, but it can have another letter). From there, start the fi le ‘menu.exe’ by double-clicking with
the left mouse button.
