Avoid removing the eyepiece as the LCD display could become damaged.
Do not leave the device in direct sunlight or rain. The unit is water resistant, but is not designed for prolonged exposure to moisture and
cannot be submerged in water.
After the unit is operated in temperatures below zero, wait at least 3 hours at room temperature, to avoid condensation accumulating on the
internal lens surfaces and the consequent fogging caused by extreme temperature differences.
TROUBLESHOOTING

(refer to the Parts and Controls Guide page)
.
2. Replace all batteries.
3. Clean the battery compartment, especially the contact points.
Observed image is too bright

in this instruction manual
).
2. Check the condition of the objective lens surface and eyepiece and clean if necessary.
3. Replace the batteries.
4. In low light conditions, activate the IR illumination (C).
Image disappears or its quality is reduced
Bright light sources (
e. g. street lights at night time
) may cause decreased visibility or reduced contrast.
1. Turn the night vision unit away from the light source; visibility will return momentarily.
