Operating Instructions
Adjusting LED Lights
The endoscope camera features 8 adjustable LED lights around the lens. Use the dimmer wheel located on the cable to increase or decrease the brightness. This allows for clear visibility in various lighting conditions, from completely dark areas to dimly lit spaces.

Optimal Observation Distance
For the clearest image, position the camera lens between 7.5 cm and 12.5 cm (approximately 3 to 5 inches) from the object you are inspecting. Images may appear blurry if the camera is too close or too far from the subject.
Using Attachments
The included accessories (mirror, hook, and magnet) can be screwed onto the tip of the camera probe for specialized tasks:
- Mirror: Provides a side view, useful for inspecting walls of pipes or hard-to-reach corners.
- Hook: Can be used to retrieve small objects from confined spaces.
- Magnet: Useful for picking up small metallic items like screws or keys.

Capturing Images and Videos
Within the "Useeplus" app interface, you will find options to capture still images or record videos. Follow the on-screen prompts to save your inspections.
Maintenance
Water Resistance
The camera probe itself is rated IP67 waterproof, meaning it can be submerged in water up to 1 meter for 30 minutes. This makes it suitable for inspecting wet environments like pipes or aquariums. However, the main cable, USB connectors, and your connected smartphone are NOT waterproof and should be kept dry.

Cleaning and Storage
- After use, especially in dirty or wet conditions, gently wipe the camera lens and probe with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn dirt, a slightly damp cloth can be used, ensuring no moisture enters the non-waterproof parts.
- Do not use harsh chemicals, solvents, or abrasive cleaners on any part of the device.
- Store the endoscope camera in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
Troubleshooting
No Image or Connection
- Ensure the "Useeplus" app is correctly installed and open on your device.
- For Android users, confirm your phone supports OTG and USB UVC functions. Check your phone's settings to ensure the OTG function is enabled.
- Verify that all cable connections (endoscope to adapter, adapter to phone) are secure and fully inserted.
- Try restarting the "Useeplus" app or your smartphone.
- Ensure you are using the correct adapter for your specific phone model (USB-C, Micro-USB, or Lightning).
Blurry Image
- Adjust the distance between the camera lens and the object. The optimal focus range is between 7.5 cm and 12.5 cm (3 to 5 inches).
- Adjust the brightness of the LED lights using the dimmer wheel to prevent overexposure or underexposure, which can affect image clarity.
- Clean the camera lens if there is any dirt or debris obstructing the view.
App Crashes or Freezes
- Close the "Useeplus" app completely and reopen it.
- Ensure your smartphone's operating system is up to date.
- Clear the cache of the "Useeplus" app through your phone's application settings.
