Setup and Initial Use

1. Unboxing: Carefully remove the sunglasses from their protective case.
2. Inspection: Check for any visible damage or loose components.
3. Fitting: Place the sunglasses on your face. Ensure the nose pads rest comfortably on your nose bridge and the temples sit securely behind your ears without causing pressure.
4. Adjustment: If the fit is too loose or too tight, minor adjustments to the nose pads or temple arms can be made by a qualified optician. Avoid attempting significant adjustments yourself to prevent damage.

Operating Instructions

Your Carrera 1069/S sunglasses are designed for everyday wear and outdoor activities, providing protection and visual clarity.

• Wearing: Hold the sunglasses by the frame and place them gently on your face. Avoid pushing them onto your head or using one hand to remove them, as this can strain the hinges.
• UV Protection: The lenses offer UV protection. While suitable for various light conditions, avoid looking directly at the sun.
• Lens Types:
  • Mirrored Lenses: Reduce glare by reflecting light away from the eyes.
  • Polarized Lenses: Specifically designed to reduce glare from reflective surfaces like water or snow, enhancing visual comfort.

Care and Maintenance

Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your sunglasses.

1. Cleaning Lenses: Clean lenses with a soft, lint-free cloth, preferably the one provided with your sunglasses. For stubborn smudges, use a specialized lens cleaning spray or mild soap and water, then dry thoroughly. Avoid abrasive materials or harsh chemicals.
2. Cleaning Frames: Wipe the frame with a soft, damp cloth.
3. Water Exposure: Avoid prolonged contact with water, especially saltwater, which can corrode metal components. If exposed, rinse with fresh water and dry immediately.
4. Storage: Store your sunglasses in their protective case when not in use to prevent scratches and damage. Avoid leaving them in direct sunlight or extreme temperatures (e.g., on a car dashboard), as this can warp the frame or damage the lenses.
5. Handling: Always handle your sunglasses with both hands to prevent bending the frame or loosening the hinges.
