TELESIN G3 118-inch Carbon Fiber Extension Selfie Stick Pole User Manual

Introduction

The TELESIN G3 Extension Selfie Stick Pole is a versatile and lightweight monopod designed for action cameras and smartphones. Constructed from 100% carbon fiber, it offers exceptional strength and durability while remaining portable. This manual provides essential information for the proper setup, operation, and maintenance of your G3 selfie stick to ensure optimal performance and longevity.

Setup

1. Extending and Retracting the Pole

The G3 selfie stick features an 8-segment retractable design, allowing extension from 44cm (17.32 inches) to 300cm (118 inches). Each section can be locked independently at any desired length.

To extend a section, gently pull it outwards.
To lock a section, twist it clockwise until it feels secure. Do not overtighten.
To unlock and retract a section, twist it counter-clockwise and push it inwards.

2. Attaching Your Device

The package includes two adapters for broad compatibility:

One adapter for GoPro cameras (e.g., GoPro Max, Hero 13/12/11/10/9/8/7/6/5 Session).
One adapter for Insta360 cameras (e.g., Insta360 X5, One R/RS, X2/X3/X4, Go3, Ace Pro) and smartphones (requires a separate phone clip, not included).

Securely attach the appropriate adapter to the top of the selfie stick, then mount your action camera or smartphone (with clip) to the adapter.

3. Tripod Stand Compatibility

The base of the pole features a standard 1/4-inch tripod screw thread. This allows you to connect the selfie stick to any compatible tripod stand for hands-free operation, vlogging, or stable video recording. Note: A tripod stand is not included and must be purchased separately.

Operating Instructions

General Usage

The TELESIN G3 is designed for a wide range of activities, including surfing, diving, snowboarding, skiing, skateboarding, and travel. Its carbon fiber construction ensures it is lightweight and durable for various environments.

Always ensure all sections are securely locked before use to prevent accidental retraction or damage to your device.
When using with 360 cameras, the slim design and carbon fiber material help minimize the stick's visibility in 360-degree footage.
The handle is wrapped in food-grade silicone with a non-slip texture for a comfortable and secure grip during use.

Waterproof Use

The carbon fiber material makes the selfie stick waterproof and rustproof, suitable for use in wet conditions such as rain, snow, and underwater environments.

Maintenance

Cleaning: After use, especially in saltwater, rinse the entire pole with fresh water and dry thoroughly to prevent any potential residue buildup.
Storage: Store the selfie stick in a dry, cool place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Ensure it is fully retracted before storage.
Inspection: Periodically check the locking mechanisms and pole sections for any signs of wear or damage. Ensure the silicone grip is clean and free of debris.
Avoid Impact: Do not hit the pole directly when storing or retracting to avoid cracking the carbon fiber material.

Troubleshooting

Issue	Possible Cause	Solution
Pole sections do not lock securely.	Insufficient clockwise twist; debris in locking mechanism.	Ensure each section is twisted firmly clockwise until secure. Clean sections if debris is suspected.
Difficulty retracting pole sections.	Sections overtightened; debris.	Twist counter-clockwise to loosen. Avoid overtightening during extension. Clean sections.
Excessive flex when fully extended.	Normal for extreme lengths; heavy camera attached.	Ensure all sections are fully extended and locked. Use a lighter camera if possible. The carbon fiber design minimizes flex compared to other materials.
Camera mount feels loose.	Adapter not tightened; worn adapter.	Ensure the camera and adapter are securely fastened. Replace adapter if worn.
