SAFETY SUMMARY

CAUTIONS

• The ATN PS31 is a precision optical instrument and must be han-

dled carefully at all times to prevent damage.

• Do not scratch the external lens surfaces or touch them with your

fingers.

• To protect the image intensifier, keep the lens cap on the objective

lens when the goggles is not in use or when checked out in daylight

conditions.

• The IR illuminator is the light that is invisible to the unaided eye

for use during conditions of extreme darkness. However, the light

from the illuminator can be detected by others when using night

vision devices.

• If you use the rubber eyecups for a long period of time, you may

suffer skin inflammation. If you develop any symptoms, consult a

doctor immediately.

WARNING

Do not carry batteries in pockets containing metal objects such as

coins, keys, etc. Metal objects can cause the batteries to short cir-

cuit and become very hot.
