light) from entering between your eye and the eyepieces. To use
the binoculars with eyeglasses, you will need to fold the eyeguards
down in order to get your eyes close enough to the eyepieces to
see the entire field of view. The ED Giantviews feature a similar
system, but the eyeguards rotate up and down instead of folding.
Cleaning and Care of Binoculars
The lens surfaces of Orion binoculars are coated with anti-reflection
coatings that can be damaged with careless handling. Avoid touch-
ing lens surfaces with fingers or any coarse material. All optics,
even if stored, should be cleaned at least once a year or when-
ever they are dirty. The dust that builds up on coatings promotes
mold growth, which etches glass and destroys coatings. Avoid
over-cleaning; it can also damage the coatings. Always use lens
cleaning tissue and fluid that are specifically designed for multi-
coated lenses. Do not use fluids or tissues that are for eyeglasses
or household use.
To clean the binocular lenses, first blow off the lens with a blower
bulb or gently wipe the lens with a lens cleaning brush to remove
the larger particles. Put a few drops of lens cleaning fluid on a fresh
piece of lens cleaning tissue (never on the lens) and gently wipe
the lens. Quickly wipe the excess fluid with a new, dry piece of lens
cleaning tissue. For larger lenses, clean only a small area at a time,
using a new tissue each time. On excessively dirty lenses, wipe
across the lens using one stroke for each tissue, alternating wet
and dry. Always avoid excessive pressure or rubbing when wiping,
as wiping too hard can scratch the lens.
Storage and Cold Weather
Orion GiantView binoculars come with a heavy-duty case for safe
storage and transport. We recommend always keeping the binocu-
lars in their case with the cover caps on when not in use.
All optics, when exposed to excessive temperature changes or high
humidity, have the potential to fog up. Allow the optics to slowly
adjust to cold weather by storing the instrument (in its case) in a
cold area, such as an unheated garage or the trunk of a car, for a
few hours before use. When bringing the instrument back inside a
warm house, open up the case, remove the binoculars, remove the
cover caps, and let everything dry out. The binoculars should be
stored in a cool, dry place to prevent mold growth, which can dam-
age the optics. This is not covered by the warranty.
