Setup

1. Battery Installation and Charging

The ET15S is powered by a detachable 18650 lithium battery. Ensure the battery is fully charged before first use.

1. Locate the battery compartment on the device.
2. Insert the 18650 battery, observing the correct polarity (+/-).
3. Close the battery compartment securely.
4. Connect the device to a USB power source using the provided USB data cable for charging. The charging indicator will show the charging status.

2. Macro Lens Installation (Optional)

If your model includes the optional macro lens, follow these steps for installation:

1. Identify the macro lens attachment point on the top of the ET15S unit.
2. Carefully align the macro lens with the attachment point.
3. Gently slide or click the macro lens into place until it is secure.
4. When using, the macro lens can be moved left and right to adjust focus for optimal small detail capture.
