ZOOM and FOCUS: 1) Your telescope is equipped with a 30X-90X zoom eyepiece* (6). To change the magnification power, gently turn the rubber zoom ring (7) on the eyepiece. The magnification power is indicated on the side of the eyepiece.

If, after several attempts, you cannot remove the particles, take the telescope to an optical professional for cleaning. If you keep the dust cap on your telescope when it is not in use and avoid handling the lenses, only minimal optical maintenance of your telescope should be required.

Jupiter is the largest planet in our solar system and the second brightest next to Venus. Jupiter has many moons, four of which are often visible through your telescope when viewing conditions permit. As you watch them throughout the evening, you will see that they change position relative to each other and to Jupiter.
