Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin using the Nikon Loupe, ensure the battery compartment is loaded according to the manufacturer's polarity specifications. To clean the lens, use a dedicated microfiber cloth and a non-abrasive lens cleaning solution; avoid using paper towels or household rags, which can scratch the coating. Store the device in a protective sleeve or case when not in use to prevent damage to the lens surface. When operating the LED, avoid staring directly into the light source at close range.
