Troubleshooting

Globe is wobbly or unstable.

Ensure the globe is placed on a perfectly flat surface. Check that the anti-slip base is clean and making full contact. If the base is damaged, contact customer support.

Map details are difficult to read.

Ensure adequate lighting in the room. Clean the globe surface with a soft cloth if smudged. The 20cm size is intended for general overview and may require close inspection for very fine details.

Rotation is stiff or not smooth.

Check for any obstructions around the rotation point. Gently rotate the globe back and forth to loosen it. Avoid forcing the rotation if resistance is met.

Time dial is stuck.

Carefully check for any minor debris obstructing the dial. Gently try to turn the dial. Do not apply excessive force. If it remains stuck, contact support.
