1.  The most important parts of your 

microscope are the lenses. Handle them 

with care. If the lenses are dirty or dusty 

you can clean them with a soft cotton cloth 

or a special lens-cleaning tissue. Do not 

wipe them with a finger or a facial tissue.

2.   If you are not going to use your microscope 

for a week or more, remove the three 

batteries that power the illuminators.

3.   Protect your microscope from dust and 

moisture by always storing it in its box.

Helpful Hints

1)   Read the important battery information on page 7.
2)  Unscrew the battery door on the base of the 

microscope.

3)  Insert 3 x AAA as shown in the battery 

compartment. Make sure the + and – 

terminals on the batteries match the 

illustration.

4)  Replace the battery door, taking care not 

to over-tighten the screw.
