1. Attach Phone to Clip: Secure your smartphone into the phone clip. Ensure the camera lens of your phone aligns with the opening in the clip.

4. Use your phone's camera controls to take photos or record videos.

7. Maintenance and Care

• Cleaning Lenses: Use the provided cleaning cloth or a soft, lint-free cloth specifically designed for optical lenses. Gently wipe the lens surfaces. For stubborn smudges, use a small amount of lens cleaning fluid on the cloth, not directly on the lens.
• Cleaning Body: Wipe the monocular body with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
• Storage: Store the monocular in its carrying pouch in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid extreme temperatures and high humidity.
• Protection: Always replace lens caps when the monocular is not in use to protect the lenses from dust and scratches.
• Waterproof: While the monocular is waterproof, avoid submerging it in water for extended periods. Dry it thoroughly if it gets wet.

8. Troubleshooting

8.1 Blurry Image

• Solution: Adjust the focus wheel slowly until the image becomes sharp. Ensure the eyepiece is clean.

8.2 Dark Image

• Solution: Ensure lens caps are fully removed. Check for sufficient ambient light. Clean the objective lens.

8.3 Phone Camera Not Aligning

• Solution: Carefully adjust the phone's position within the clip and the clip's position on the eyepiece until the monocular's view is centered on your phone screen. You may need to slightly zoom in on your phone's camera app.

8.4 Monocular Shakes When Using Phone

• Solution: Use a tripod for stability. Ensure all connections (phone to clip, clip to monocular, monocular to tripod) are secure.
