3.1 Charging the Device

Before initial use, ensure the endoscope monitor is fully charged. Connect the provided Micro USB cable to the charging port on the side of the monitor and plug the other end into a compatible USB power source. A red light will flash during charging and will turn off once the battery is fully charged. The device features a 2500mAh rechargeable lithium battery.

3.2 Inserting the Camera Probe

Align the connector of the camera probe with the port on the top of the monitor. Ensure the keying marks align (often indicated by a red dot) and gently push the probe into the port. Screw the collar to secure the connection. The probe is designed to be semi-rigid, allowing it to hold its shape for easier navigation into tight spaces.
