4. OPERATING YOUR MICROSCOPE

Choose a location to use your microscope which is dry and level. For your very fi rst go at using 
it, it is best to place the microscope on a table. It is also preferable to sit on a chair while using 
it, as you can then get to know the instrument while completely relaxed.

  4.1.  First steps

4.1.1. POWER

Your omegon StereoView can be powered using a mains adapter, ordinary batteries or
rechargeable batteries.

Batteries:

 You will fi nd a duct for inserting 3x AA 1.5V batteries under the microscope.

Mains adapter:

 The accessories include a mains adapter with a plug that fi ts into a socket at 

the back of the microscope.

4.1.2. POWER SWITCH

sides simultaneously is also possible.

HOW TO PROCEED:

I.  Turn the rotary switch on the right-hand side from the 'OFF' position to the 'I' position, and
