Caution

Binoculars are not intended for looking at the sun or other
intense light sources. Such viewing could damage the retina and
cornea of your eyes—even to the point of causing blindness.

Basic Operation

Adjust the eyecups
Enjoy comfortable viewing even if you wear eyeglasses. Simply
twist the eyecups up or down to see the full field of view.
Keep the eyecups fully extended
if you aren’t wearing eyeglasses
or sunglasses. For the best views
when wearing eyeglasses, twist
the eyecups down.

Adjust the interpupillary distance

The interpupillary distance (IPD) is the distance between the
centers of the left and right pupil. Your binocular also has an IPD.
To see a single image free of shading, rotate your binocular until
its IPD aligns with your eyes.

Focus your binocular

For the best views, use the center focus and diopter to adjust for
vision differences in each eye. Choose an object that is about 20
yards away from you and perform this two-step process:
1. Adjust the center focus. Close your right eye or cover
the right objective lens with your
hand. Look at the object with your
left eye and adjust the center focus
dial until the image is in focus.
Note: Keep the center focus in this
position as you adjust the diopter.
2. Adjust the diopter. Close your left eye or cover the left
objective lens with your hand and rotate
the diopter ring until the object is in
focus. Note: Be sure to record this setting
so you can go back to it if someone
changes the diopter setting.
After setting the diopter you only need
to use the center dial to focus your binocular. If your vision
changes, you may need to repeat this process.

Accessories

Use the provided eyepiece rainguard to protect lenses when you
are not using your binocular. Between viewing sessions, safely
store your binocular in the case. Note: If the optics are exposed
to moisture, keep the rainguard off and allow the optics to dry
out completely before putting them in the case for storage.
Neckstrap
Securely attach the binocular strap to your binocular:

Note: Please do not thread a metal ring directly onto the strap
attachment loop when attaching rings or clips for other aftermarket equipment. Instead, use nylon zip ties according to the
manufacturer’s instructions.

Lens Care

Follow this two-step process to gently clean the exterior lenses of your binocular.
1. Blow away any dust or grit before wiping the lens. Use a
can of pressurized air, soft camel hair brush, or acrylic optical
brush.
2. Gently remove smudges,
fingerprints, and eyelash oil from
the lens. Use a small amount of
water or your breath to moisten
the lens then wipe away smudges
with a clean lens cloth. Isopropyl
alcohol can help remove marks like
fingerprints.
Note: Avoid over-scrubbing lenses and always use a clean lens
cloth—replace the dirty lens cloth with a new, clean lens cloth.
Please do not use facial tissue, heavy cotton, or flannel cloth on
the lenses because these materials can scratch the lens surface.
