How to use

Set the telescope on the included tripod or a stable table surface and attach the handbox to the mount. Power the unit, follow the guided alignment procedure on the multilingual handbox menu and perform the required star or solar alignment step. After alignment, select a target from the built-in database or enter coordinates; the Go-To system will automatically slew the telescope to the chosen object. Use the focus knob to sharpen the image and change eyepieces if higher or lower magnification is needed. For solar observation, always install the supplied aperture solar filter securely before pointing the telescope at the Sun.

Recommendations

Operate the telescope on a stable surface and allow the optics to reach ambient temperature before detailed observations. Always use the supplied solar filter for any solar viewing and never look at the Sun through the telescope without the filter. Store the instrument in a dry place and verify the handbox firmware and batteries regularly for reliable Go-To performance.
