Meade GREEN LASER POINTER Operating Instructions

Introduction

Your laser pointer uses two AAA batteries. It is recommended that you use alkaline batteries. Remove the batteries if you are not planning to use it for long periods.

To install or change the batteries, unthread the cap at the clip end of the laser pointer. Insert the batteries so that the "+" end points towards the cap. Replace the cap.

To turn on the laser, press and hold down the On/Off button. Release the button to turn off.

The laser pointer is not designed to be held in the On positions for long periods of time; rather, use it in short bursts to conserve the battery life.

Do not look directly at the laser light or shine the beam into the eyes of another person or animal. The laser can be harmful to eyes. Do not point the laser at any vehicle, aircraft, vessel or other moving object. Do not use the laser while operating any vehicle or equipment. Temporary blindness can occur. Keep out of the reach of children and do not let children use the laser as a toy.

Be courteous when using the laser pointer at star parties and try not to interfere with the observations of others. Some star parties forbid the use of green laser pointers. Check with the organizers of your star party for further information.
