ACTIVATING/REPLACING THE BATTERY

Remove the battery cover by lifting the battery cover tab and then rotating the cover

counter clockwise until it is loose. Lift off the cover and set it aside.

ACTIVATING THE INSTALLED BATTERY

A CR2 battery is pre-installed in your new Tour

V5. Before using the rangefinder, remove the battery cover as described above. Remove

the red plastic protective disc (see photo, right) from the top of the battery, then replace

the battery cover.

REPLACING A LOW BATTERY

: Insert a new CR2 3-volt lithium battery into the compartment

positive end first (negative “flat” end facing out towards the battery cover), then replace

the battery cover. Note: It is recommended that the battery be replaced at least once

every 6 months.

BASIC OPERATION

1. While looking through the Tour V5, depress the Power/Fire button once to activate the display. If the display icons and

numbers are blurry, rotate the eyepiece in either direction until they are in focus (see “Adjusting the Eyepiece” below).

2. Placing the aiming circle (center of the display) over a target at least 5 yards away, press and hold the Power/Fire button

until the “line of sight” distance is displayed near the bottom of the display (see “Display Indicators” below). Crosshairs

surrounding the aiming circle indicate that the laser is being transmitted.

3. After a range has been acquired and displayed, you can release the Power/Fire button. The crosshairs surrounding the

aiming circle will disappear once the Power/Fire button has been released (i.e. the laser is no longer being transmitted).

4. Once activated, the display will remain visible and continue to display the last distance measurement for 10 seconds.

You can press the Power/Fire button again at any time to range to a new target. The maximum time the laser is

transmitted (active) is 5 seconds. To re-fire, press the button down again.

USING PINSEEKER™ WITH VISUAL JOLT®

Bushnell’s exclusive Pinseeker™ feature allows reliable targeting of the flag without inadvertently getting distances to large

background targets (i.e. trees) that have stronger signal strength.
When ranging your target, if the laser beam recognized more than one object (for example, the flag and a group of trees

behind it), only the distance to the closest object (the flag) will be displayed. The JOLT Technology provides two short bursts

of vibration to confirm that the distance displayed is to the flag, and the red ring (Visual JOLT Indicator) around the outer

edge of the display is activated, confirming the laser has ranged the correct target via Pinseeker.
There may be times when the laser beam only sees one object in its path. In this case, the distance will be displayed, but

because more than one object was not acquired, no JOLT indication will be provided.

Tip: While pressing the Power/Fire button, you can move the device slowly from object to object and intentionally force the laser to hit multiple objects

to ensure that you are only displaying the closest of the objects recognized by the laser. Once the device has shut off, the unit will always default back

to the last mode used.

ADJUSTING THE EYEPIECE

The Tour V5 is equipped with an adjustable Fast Focus eyepiece (+/- 3.5 diopter adjustment) that allows you to focus the

displayed data and icons relative to the viewed image from the monocular optics. Simply rotate the eyepiece until the

display is in focus.

DISPLAY INDICATORS

Your Tour V5 display incorporates the following indicators (refer to

display image at right):

1. Aiming Circle (surrounding crosshairs indicate laser

transmission)

2. Battery Level

3. “Play As” Distance* (based on Slope)
