Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up your crystal ball is straightforward: place the clear stand on a level, stable surface and gently set the sphere into the center of the stand. For routine maintenance, use a soft, lint-free microfiber cloth to wipe away fingerprints or dust; avoid abrasive cleaners or paper towels, as these can create microscopic scratches on the optical glass surface. When storing, always return the ball to the provided foam-filled box to protect it from impacts and to minimize dust accumulation.
