Setting up the Planetarium

1. Open the battery cover at the bottom of the unit and insert 3 pieces of AA size batteries. Please refer to the “Battery Installation Section” below. Replace battery cover firmly.

2. Place the unit over the stand (15) on a flat and stable platform (e.g. a table), the optimum project distance is about 1.8m to 2m.

3. Press the Slide Tray Eject Button (7) to open the tray and install the star disc (16). Note the keys on the disc have to match the ridges on the tray.

4. While the slide tray is still opened, set the time and date of the night sky you want to view by aligning the desired date on Date Dial with the desired hour on the Time Scale.

Time Scale (fixed): Time from 20:00 (8 p.m.) to 02:00 (2 a.m.) is shown. Align the Date Dial with it to project stars at a particular time. (Each subdivision equals 30 minutes.)

Date Dial (Adjustable): The Date Dial has 365 days. Adjust the dial to project stars you want to see on a particular date. (Each subdivision equals to 2 days. The long mark corresponds to the last day of the previous month.)

Example 1: If you want to see the star pattern at mid-night (00:00) on 7th July, align 00:00 on the time scale with 7th July. Position of the date 7th is between 6th and 8th.

Example 2 : If you want to see the star pattern at 22:30 (10:30 p.m.) on 30th December, align 22:30 on the time scale with 30th December. As shown in the figure, the small marking represents 3 days. Therefore the day 30th would be at 2/3 of the marking. (The same setting applies to January, March, May, July, August and October.) Note that 28th and 29th of February are at the same mark.

5. Close the tray. Note that you are looking to the north when you face the star projector from the front. Please do not turn the Date Dial when the tray is closed. You need to open the tray again if you want to set the date, or you can use the Rotate Left (8) or Rotate Right button (5) while the unit is turned on.

6. Press the ON/STOP/OFF switch (1) once to turn on the Projector Light. Dim or turn off the light in the room for best visual experience.

Note that the unit cannot be turned on when the tray is opened.

7. You can freely adjust the projection angle of the projection head over the stand (15) to suit viewing on the ceiling or sidewall.

8. Adjust the focus dial (14) until the projected star field is sharp. The optimum project distance is 1.8m to 2m, image will become blur if the distance is too near or too far.

Using the Shooting Star Function

When the night sky is in the rotating state, press the Shooting Star Button (10) to enable the shooting star function. A shooting star will appear in the night sky at regular time interval. It will appear more frequently if the rotating speed is set higher. Press the same button again to disable shooting star.
