CARE AND CLEANING

PROBLEMS OR REPAIR

WARRANTY

Twist the rubber eyecups up if you do not wear 
eyeglasses or twist them down if you do wear 
eyeglasses to obtain the maximum field of view.

Now you are ready to use your binoculars — enjoy the 
view!

If you ever notice that while using the binocular you 
feel a “pulling” sensation in either eye, the diopter 
compensation dial may have been moved. The above 

procedure should be used to return it to the correct 
balance for your eyes.

These binoculars feature a built-in tripod adapter fitting 
which is a threaded screw hole underneath a cap. To 
attach a binocular tripod adapter, remove the cap and 
then thread the screw from the binocular tripod adapter 
into the threaded screw hole. The other end of the 

binoculars’ tripod adapter attaches to a photographic 
tripod. Mounting binoculars this way allows for added 
stability and comfort.allows for added stability and 
comfort. 

Binoculars do not need routine maintenance other 
than making sure that the objective lenses and 
eyepieces are kept clean. If repairs become necessary, 
they should be serviced by the manufacturer or a 
qualified binocular repair company. Collimation (optical 
alignment) is the biggest concern with binoculars. 
If your binoculars are roughly handled or dropped, 
there is a good chance that the collimation will be out, 
and they should be serviced. Dirty objectives and/
or eyepieces mean less light transmission and loss 
of brightness as well as unsharp images. Keep your 
optics clean! When not using your binoculars, store 
them in the case provided. Avoid touching the glass 
surfaces, however, if fingerprints (which contain mild 

acid) do get on the glass, they should be cleaned as 
soon as possible to avoid damaging the coatings. 
To clean the optical surfaces, we recommend the 
Celestron Lens Cleaning Kit (#93576), available at 
most photo or optical shops. Follow the instructions 
provided with the kit closely for best results. If you 
have a lot of dust or dirt accumulated, brush it off 
gently with a camel’s hair brush and/or utilize a 
can of pressurized air before using the cleaning kit. 
Alternately, you could use the Celestron LensPen 
(#93575) made especially for cleaning binoculars. 
Never attempt to clean your binoculars internally or try 
to take them apart!

CAUTION!

Viewing the Sun may cause permanent eye damage. Do not view the Sun with your binoculars or even with the 
naked eye.
