3. Oppsett

3.1 Feste nakkestroppen

1. Tre endene av halsstroppen gjennom stroppfestene på hver side av kikkerten.
2. Secure the strap by passing it back through the buckle, ensuring it is tightly fastened.
3. Adjust the strap length for comfortable carrying around your neck.

3.2 Justering av øyemuslinger

The eyecups can be adjusted to provide the optimal eye relief for comfortable viewing.

• For users without eyeglasses: Rotate the eyecups counter-clockwise until they are fully extended.
• For users with eyeglasses: Rotate the eyecups clockwise until they are fully retracted. This allows your eyes to be closer to the eyepieces, providing a full field of view.

3.3 Justering av pupillavstand

The interpupillary distance (the distance between the centers of your pupils) must be set correctly to see a single, circular image.

1. Hold kikkerten opp til øynene.
2. Bend the binocular body at the hinge until you see a single, perfectly circular field of view.

3.4 Dioptrijustering

This adjustment compensates for differences in vision between your left and right eyes.

1. Lukk høyre øye eller dekk til høyre objektivlinse.
2. Look through the binoculars with your left eye at a distant object.
3. Rotate the central focus wheel until the image is sharp for your left eye.
4. Lukk venstre øye eller dekk til venstre objektivlinse.
5. Look through the binoculars with your right eye at the same distant object.
6. Adjust the diopter ring (usually on the right eyepiece) until the image is sharp for your right eye.
7. The diopter setting is now calibrated for your eyes. You should only need to use the central focus wheel for subsequent observations.

4. Drift

4.1 Fokusering

Once the interpupillary distance and diopter are set, focusing is straightforward:

1. Raise the binoculars to your eyes.
2. Finn ønsket objekt.
3. Rotate the central focus wheel until the object appears sharp and clear. The SmartFocus concept allows for quick adjustments with minimal rotation.

5. Vedlikehold og stell

5.1 Rengjøring av linser

The lenses of your ZEISS SFL binoculars feature advanced coatings for optimal performance. Proper cleaning is crucial to maintain their quality.

1. Remove loose dust: Use a soft brush or a blower bulb to gently remove any loose dust or particles from the lens surfaces.
2. Clean smudges: For fingerprints or stubborn smudges, breathe lightly on the lens surface to create condensation, then gently wipe with the provided microfiber cleaning cloth. Use circular motions from the center outwards.
3. Unngå sterke kjemikalier: Never use abrasive cloths, paper towels, or harsh cleaning solutions, as these can damage the lens coatings.

The ZEISS T* coating ensures brilliant, high-contrast images, especially in challenging light conditions. The LotuTec coating provides a clear view in wet weather by repelling water and dirt from the lens surface.

5.2 Generell rengjøring og oppbevaring

• Tørk av kikkerten med en myk klutamp klut for å fjerne smuss eller skitt.
• Store the binoculars in their protective case when not in use to prevent dust accumulation and physical damage.
• Unngå oppbevaring i direkte sollys eller ekstreme temperaturer.
• The binoculars are waterproof; however, after exposure to water, dry them thoroughly before storing.
