To ensure smooth and long-term operation, we recommend that you read this brochure to avoid damage to your telescope or mount.
Please note: although telescope optics and mounts are of course designed for outdoor use, the electronics in particular are sensitive to moisture or extreme temperatures and temperature changes. If your mount is exposed to the elements unprotected for long periods of time or stored in unfavorable conditions, it can be damaged by the effects of the weather. Moisture can not only rapidly age the surfaces of telescope mirrors and coatings on all kinds of optical elements, but can also damage the mechanics and electronics of mounts.
If you follow the instructions in this brochure, your telescope and mount can provide you with many years of faithful service, even if the warranty period has long since expired. On the other hand, incorrect handling or incorrect storage will quickly lead to damage to the optics and mount which will no longer be covered by the warranty.
We also expressly refer to the warranty provisions in our General Terms and Conditions at www.baader-planetarium.com
