Using the shooting stars function
After activating the image rotation, you can also
switch on the shooting stars function. To do
this, press the button for activating the shoot-
ing stars function (18). Via the shooting stars

Press the button (18) again to deactivate the
shooting stars function.
NOTE: The intervals at which the shooting
stars pass through the image can be reduced
by increasing the rotation speed.
