Introduction

Congratulations on the purchase of your
new Quicklook Zoom magnifier. Quicklook
has been designed for simple and intuitive
use and will aid people with low vision to
read and write. However you should consult
with your eye care professional to determine
the suitability of this product in your
particular case. We recommend that you

charge it for three hours or until the red

charge indicator is extinguished.
Plug the power supply into a wall socket and

insert the connector into Quicklook as
shown in the diagram.

The red light beside the power connector
should illuminate indicating that the battery
is being charged. The light will go off when
the battery is substantially charged. It
takes about three hours to charge the
battery from a discharged state. Additional
charging will not cause any damage to the

Operation

The Quicklook Zoom is powered on by
rotating the camera to either of its operating
positions. It is powered off by rotating the
camera back to the closed position.

Reading

Rotate the camera
ninety degrees to its
first click position so
that the camera is
looking downwards.
Place the unit on or
slightly above the
item you wish to
read. You will have
to position the camera directly over the
area of interest. In this respect Quicklook
Zoom differs from a magnifying glass in that
the image you see does not correspond to
the area directly beneath.

Quicklook Zoom can be viewed from any
orientation, but to obtain the most accurate
colour reproduction you should ideally look
directly down on the screen.
