It is possible to bring every subject into focus from the shortest adjustment distance (see Technical Data Sheet) to infinity by turning the focusing wheel. In the infinity position the little nose of the focusing wheel is at the top.

Dioptric compensation

To achieve optimal image quality, the possibly varying visual acuity between the left and right eye must be corrected.

Use with equal acuity of both eyes:

The dioptric compensation is set to “zero”.

Use with varying acuity of both eyes:

  • 1. Look through the left ocular with your left eye and turn the focusing wheel to focus sharply on a selected object.
  • 2. Now, using your right eye, look at the same object through the right eyepiece and use the dioptric compensation to set the optimal image sharpness.

Maintenance and care

Lens-cleaning cloth

You can clean high sensitive lens surfaces with the enclosed special cloth made of micro-fibres. It is suitable for objective lens, ocular lens and eyeglasses. Please keep the cloth clean, as dirt can damage the lens surface. If the cloth gets dirty, it can be washed in luke-warm soapy water and air-dried. Please use it exclusively for cleaning lens surfaces!

Cleaning

We have designed all elements and surfaces to require little care. To ensure the long-lasting optical brilliance of your binocular, you should keep the glass surfaces free of dirt, oil and grease. When cleaning the lenses, first remove larger particles with an optical lens brush. For the subsequent thorough cleaning we recommend breathing onto the lens surface to form a coat of condensation and then cleaning it with a soft, moist cloth. The housing is best cleansed with a soft, moist cloth (don’t use the lens-cleaning cloth).

In the event of hard-to-remove dirt (e.g. sand) the eye cups can be unscrewed and cleaned very easily.

Storage

You should keep your binocular in its bag in a wellventilated, dry place. If the instrument is wet, it must be dried prior to storage. In tropical regions or regions with a high degree of humidity the best place to store the instrument in is an air-tight receptacle along with a moisture-absorbing agent (e.g. silica gel).

For your safety!

WARNING!

Never look at the sun with the binocular! This leads to injury of your eyes!
