any dirt or finger prints, clean with the supplied micro-fibre cloth rubbing in a circular motion. Use of a coarse cloth or unnecessary rubbing may scratch the lens surface and will eventually cause permanent damage. The included washable microfiber cleaning cloth is ideal for routine cleaning. Simply breathe lightly on the lens to provide a slight amount of moisture, then gently rub the lens with the microfiber cloth. For a more thorough cleaning we recommend the use of a lens/optics cleaning kit available at most photo or optical shops. Additionally photographic lens cleaning fluid or isopropyl alcohol may be used. Always apply the fluid to the cleaning cloth – never directly on the lens.

The housing is best cleansed with a soft, moist cloth (don’t use the lens-cleaning cloth).

Storage

Please protect your spotting scope from jolts and jars and do not force any of the moving parts beyond their limits. Protect the optics of your spotting scope by applying all lens caps when not in use. You should also store your spotting scope in a well-ventilated and dark place. A wet spotting scope should be dried
before storage.
When storing for an extended period of time, place the spotting scope in a plastic bag or airtight container with a desiccant.
