3. Setup

1. Unpacking: Carefully remove the sunglasses from their packaging. Check for any visible damage during transit.
2. Initial Inspection: Ensure the lenses are clean and free of scratches. Verify that the hinges operate smoothly and the nose pads are securely attached.
3. Fit Adjustment (Optional): If the fit feels loose or tight, or if the nose pads require adjustment, it is recommended to visit a professional optician. Attempting to adjust the frame or temples yourself may cause damage and void the warranty.

4. Operating Instructions

These sunglasses are designed to protect your eyes from harmful UV rays and reduce glare. They are not intended for direct observation of the sun or for use as safety glasses.

• Wearing: Gently unfold the temples and place the sunglasses on your face, ensuring the nose pads rest comfortably on your nose bridge and the temples sit securely over your ears.
• Removing: Use both hands to remove the sunglasses to prevent bending the temples or frame.
• Folding: Fold the left temple inward first, then the right temple, to ensure proper alignment and prevent scratching the lenses.

5. Maintenance

5.1 Cleaning

• Lenses: Use a soft, clean microfiber cloth specifically designed for eyewear. For stubborn smudges, lightly dampen the cloth with a specialized lens cleaning spray or lukewarm water. Avoid using paper towels, clothing, or harsh chemicals, as these can scratch the lenses or damage coatings.
• Frame: Wipe the frame with a soft, damp cloth. Dry immediately with a clean, dry cloth.
• Product Care Instructions: Hand Wash Only (referring to cleaning cloth or specific parts, not the entire sunglasses).

5.2 Storage

• Always store your sunglasses in their protective case when not in use to prevent scratches and damage.
• Avoid exposing sunglasses to extreme temperatures, such as leaving them on a car dashboard in direct sunlight, as this can warp the frame or damage lens coatings.
