Inserting your star disc 

 
The  top  surface  is  the  side  on  which  any  text 
appears normal and legible. Match the wedge on 
the star disc against the protrusion on the holder. 
Once  set,  slide  the  star  disc  holder  back  into 
place. 

 

The included star discs are for the sky as can be seen from Japan. However, if your 

location is between the latitudes of 30 and 45 degrees North (for example, the vast 

majority of the United States), the star discs should fairly accurately depict the stars in your 

region as well. 

 
For  the  remainder  of  the  manual,  any  numbers  in  brackets  (#)  will  indicate  the 
corresponding button to press on the remote.   
 

Basic Operation 

Place the Homestar on a flat surface. For best viewing results place 
the Homestar roughly 2 – 2.3m (6.5 to 7.5 ft) away from the ceiling.   
 
 
 
 
Plug the device into a 100-240 V power supply. To prevent blinding 
from sudden light, do not turn the Homestar on before plugging it in.   
 
 
 
Insert the star disc of your choice. The Homestar comes with three 
discs. See top of page for details.   
Make sure to slide it in horizontally. 
 
 
 
Turn the power on (11). You’ll hear a single beep and the power LED 
will  turn  green.  It  takes  about  4  seconds  for  the  light  to  reach 
maximum  brightness.  Also  note  that  the  brightness  is  set  to 
maximum  by  default  but  can  be  adjusted  using  the  remote  (3)
When you finish using the Homestar press the power button (11) on 
the remote. You’ll hear two beeps and the power LED will change to
