Troubleshooting the MP-250 (100x-250x LED MicroFlip Pocket Microscope)

When using pocket microscopes that include a flip-down slide base (like the MP-250; 100x-250x LED MicroFlip Pocket Microscope), gently flip the slide base down and place the slide securely on the base for optimal viewing. For all other applications - the slide base should remain flipped up and out of the way, while the microscope should be placed directly against the 3D object or held less than 1-2 mm away in order to get the best possible results.

To utilize the UV light feature on the MP-250 (100x-250x LED MicroFlip Pocket Microscope with Smartphone Adapter), the slide base must be flipped up as the UV light is deactivated when the slide base is flipped down to the base of the microscope.
