Using the Binoculars

Eyepieces for Spectacle Wearers

To use the binoculars while wearing glasses, turn the rubber eyecups (2) towards the sides and down. If you are not wearing glasses, leave the eyecups in the upright position to achieve the required distance from the pupils.

Adjusting the Eyepiece Distance

The distance between the eyes differs between individuals. To achieve perfect interaction between your eyes and the eyepieces of your binoculars, set the angle at the centre of the binoculars (1) so that you see a circular image (10). Note this setting for later use.

Adjusting the Focus

Your binoculars feature single eyepiece adjustment (6). To focus, look at an object approximately 100 meters away. Close only your left eye and keep turning the right eyepiece setting ring until the object is in sharp focus. Then, close only your right eye and turn the left eyepiece setting ring until the object you are looking at is again in sharp focus. The binoculars are now precisely adjusted to your eyesight. The single eyepiece setting (6) is designed to give you a better perspective. When switching between objects of varying distance, the focus need only be readjusted if the change in distance is really major.

Mounting on a Tripod

To mount the binoculars on a tripod, remove the tripod connection cap (3) to access the threaded tripod connection (9). Then screw on the tripod adapter. You can use this to mount your binoculars on the included tripod.

Tripod Mounting Notes

Make sure that the quick clamping rings and fixing screws are always hand-tightened so that the necessary stability of the tripod is guaranteed. Check the stability before putting on a device. Keep holding the photographic or optical device until it is balanced and secured on the tripod. Never open the quick clamping rings and fixing screws with an attached device to prevent damage from falling.

Care and Maintenance

Cleaning Lenses

Lenses (eyepieces and/or object lenses) should be cleaned with a soft, lint-free cloth (e.g. microfibre) only. Do not use excessive pressure - this may scratch the lens. Dampen the cleaning cloth with a spectacle cleaning fluid and use it on very dirty lenses.

Storage

Protect the device against dirt and dust. Leave it to dry properly after use at room temperature. Then put the dust caps on and store the device in the case provided.

Disposal

Dispose of the packaging materials properly, according to their type, such as paper or cardboard. Contact your local waste-disposal service or environmental authority for information on the proper disposal.
