I. HOW TO USE YOUR BINOCULAR:
A. IDP ADJUSTMENT
Set the interpupillary distance by grasping the body and bending it until you can see
one circle of view. The setting for your eyes will be indicated on the IPD Scale (Note
the scale setting for later use).
B. FOCUSSING
1. Close your right eye and sight an object with your left eye. Focus the binocular by
rotating the centre focus wheel until the image is sharp and clear.
2. Open your right eye and close your left eye. Rotate the right eyepiece until the
object sighted is sharp and clear (Note the setting of the dioptre scale for later use).
3. Both sides (eyes) are now in focus and you will need to use only the centre focus
wheel to focus on the other objects.
C. RUBBER FOLD-DOWN EYE CUPS
Fold down for use with eyeglasses and fold up for use without eyeglasses. They
provide comfort and promote viewing ease.
II. HOW TO CARE FOR YOUR BINOCULAR:
A. Keep the lens covers (that come with your binocular, except the compact type) on
the lenses when binocular is not in use.
B. When wiping the lenses, use the lens cloth that comes with the binocular, or a soft,
lintless cloth.
C. To remove any remaining dirt or smudges, add one or two drops of isopropyl
alcohol to the cloth.
D. Store your binocular in a moisture-free area.
III. VERY IMPORTANT:
Never attempt to clean your binocular internally or try to take it apart.
CAUTION!
Viewing the sun can cause permanent eye damage.
Do not view the sun with this binocular or even with the naked eye.
