Operating Instructions

Your Space Solar System Globe features two modes of operation: electric and manual.

Electric Mode

To activate the electric rotation and the glowing sun, ensure a button battery is correctly installed in the designated compartment. Refer to the paper manual for battery installation details. Once installed, locate the power switch (often labeled 'POWER SWITCH' on the base) and turn it on. The planets will begin to rotate around the sun, and the sun will illuminate.

Manual Mode

For manual operation, you can use the hand crank located on the side of the base. This allows for interactive rotation of the planetary system without battery power. Simply turn the crank to observe the gears and planets in motion.

Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal appearance of your building block set, please follow these maintenance guidelines:

  • Cleaning: Gently wipe the assembled model with a dry, soft cloth to remove dust. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
  • Storage: Store the model in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to prevent material degradation or discoloration.
  • Battery Replacement: If the electric functions (rotation, glowing sun) cease to work, replace the button battery as per the instructions in the paper manual. Ensure proper polarity.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing Parts: In the rare event of missing parts, please contact the seller for a free replacement service.
  • Electric Function Not Working:
    • Check if the button battery is correctly installed and has sufficient charge.
    • Ensure the power switch is in the 'ON' position.
    • Verify that all electrical connections (if any visible) are secure.
  • Planets Not Rotating Smoothly:
    • Ensure all gears and connecting pieces are correctly assembled and not obstructed.
    • Check for any loose or misaligned blocks that might be causing friction.
