Loosen the screw on the battery holder
1#
with
a screwdriver (you’ve surely got one at home).
Now lay the 3 batteries
1%
into the battery com-
partment
1$
as shown in gure 3.
IMPORTANT: Be sure to place the batteries in
so that their positive and negative poles are in
the right direction. The little imprints (+/-) in the
battery compartment will tell you which direc-
tion is right.
After you’ve installed the batteries
1%
, put the
battery holder

back on and screw it in.
Finally, you must only set the battery compart-
ment cover

on again.
Now place the pedestal for the planetarium
sphere
J
on a level and stable surface (e.g.
on a table) and lay the planetarium sphere
b
in. The objective lens
H
must be parallel to the
projection surface (wall or ceiling) (Fig. 4).
1.8 to
2 m

Fig. 4
IMPORTANT: The distance between the ob-
jective lens and the wall or ceiling should be at
least 1.8 to 2 m.
NOTE: Most ceilings are approx. 2,5 m in
height. If required, use a tape measure to help
you to set the required projection distance.
Finally, turn the planetarium sphere
B
in such
a way so that the side directly across from the
slide plate holder
h
is pointing north (Fig. 4).
