RANGEFINDER DOES NOT PROVIDE RANGE.

• Make sure that the POWER button is being depressed (as opposed to MODE 

button)

• Make sure that nothing, such as your hand or finger, is blocking the 

lenses — as this could interfere with the emission and reception of the laser 
pulses

• Make sure unit is held steadily while depressing the POWER button

• When using BOW mode, it is important to note that TBR returns are limited to 

175 yards; returns greater than 175 yards will be displayed as LOS and the 
LOS icon will flash

• Make sure the target is at least 6 yards away
