You will also need a smartphone or tablet to operate the telescope. Your Astro Fi Telescope requires one of the following power sources: Use the parts list below to verify that all parts and accessories are present. Unpack theīox carefully as some parts are small. We recommend saving your telescope box so it can be used to store the telescope when it is not in use. Internal heat build-up inside the telescope can cause these devices to crack or break, allowing unfiltered sunlight toĭo not leave the telescope unsupervised, either when children are present or adults who may not be familiar with the correct operating procedures of your telescope.
Never use an eyepiece solar filter or a Herschel wedge. Internal heat build-up can damage the telescope and any accessories attached to it. Never use your telescope to project an image of the Sun onto any surface. Permanent and irreversible eye damage may result. Never look directly at the Sun with the naked eye or with a telescope (unless you have the proper solar filter).
