4. Operating Instructions
4.1 General Use and Safety
Always attach a clean speculum or safety shield before inserting the otoscope into the ear canal. This helps prevent over-insertion and protects the ear. The otoscope is equipped with a smart orientation gyroscope to maintain a steady and unobstructed view of the ear canal and eardrum, even with device rotation.

5. Maintenance
5.1 Cleaning the Otoscope and Accessories
After each use, especially when using earwax removal tools, clean the camera lens and any attached accessories. Use the provided cleaning swabs or a soft, dry cloth. For ear picks and specula, wash with mild soap and water, then rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry completely before storage. Ensure the otoscope itself is not submerged in water.
5.2 Storage
Store the otoscope and its accessories in a clean, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
6. Troubleshooting
- Q: The otoscope does not connect to my phone's Wi-Fi.
- A: Ensure the otoscope is powered on and its Wi-Fi indicator is active. Go to your phone's Wi-Fi settings and select the network named 'Smart Otoscope-xxx'. Do not attempt to connect via your home Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. If issues persist, restart both the otoscope and your phone.
- Q: The image is blurry or unclear.
- A: The camera lens may be dirty. Gently clean the lens with a dry, soft cleaning swab. Ensure the focal distance is appropriate (approximately 1 inch from the object for optimal clarity).
