Microscope assembly
The battery has to be fully charged before turning the microscope on for the first
time. Plug the power cable into the power cable socket on the microscope body (14)
and connect it to a power source. The battery status indicator (6) will turn red. Once
the battery is fully charged, the indicator will go out. You can now disconnect the
microscope from the power source and turn it on. The fully-charged battery allows
you to use the microscope for three hours. The illumination will grow dim and the
image quality will decrease to inform you that the battery is low. Charge the battery, as
described above.
A microSD card (purchased separately) is required to save captured images and
recorded videos. Turn the microscope off and insert the microSD card into the
corresponding slot on the microscope body until it locks in place with a click. Do not
apply excessive force when inserting the microSD card. Try rotating the card, if it does
not lock in place with ease. Format the card before using it. To turn the microscope on
press the power button (15). To turn the microscope off press the power button (15)
again (refer to Power saving for more information).
