Battery Installation
The sight requires a specific battery type (typically a CR2032, though not explicitly stated in provided data). Locate the battery compartment, usually a screw-on cap on the side or top of the sight. Insert the battery with the correct polarity (+/-) as indicated inside the compartment. Securely close the cap.
Operating Instructions
Power On/Off and Reticle Adjustment
The sight features a patterned illumination rheostat. Rotate the rheostat knob, typically located on the side of the sight, to turn the unit on and select between red or green dot illumination. Continue rotating to adjust the brightness level. To power off, rotate the knob to the 'OFF' position.

Windage and Elevation Adjustment
Adjustment turrets for windage (horizontal) and elevation (vertical) are typically located on the top and side of the sight. Remove the protective caps. Use a flathead screwdriver or the integrated tool (if provided) to make small adjustments. Each click typically represents a specific change in point of impact at a given distance (e.g., 1 MOA per click).

Zeroing the Sight
To zero the sight, mount it securely on your firearm. At a safe shooting range, fire a group of shots at a target. Observe where the shots impact relative to your aim point. Adjust the windage and elevation turrets to move the point of impact towards your aim point. Repeat this process until your shots consistently hit the desired target area. Always follow safe firearm handling procedures.
Maintenance
Cleaning
To clean the lenses, use a soft, lint-free cloth and a lens cleaning solution specifically designed for optics. Gently wipe the lens surfaces. For the sight body, use a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the finish or coatings.
Storage
When not in use, store the sight in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. It is recommended to remove the battery if the sight will be stored for an extended period to prevent battery leakage.
Battery Replacement
When the dot illumination becomes dim or inconsistent, it is time to replace the battery. Follow the battery installation steps outlined in the Setup section. Ensure the new battery is of the correct type and inserted with the proper polarity.
