Using the Image Stabilization Feature
This binoculars can be used with or without the
image stabilization feature switched on, but swit-
ching it on will make viewing at higher magnifica-
tions much easier! To switch this feature on, having
first inserted the battery, simply slide the on/off
switch (1) to the "on" position and when you do this,
a small green light will illuminate on the battery co-
ver. It should immediately become obvious that this
feature is switched on because the viewing image
will no longer be so sensitive to the natural tremb-
ling of your hand(s).
Care and Cleaning
Your binocular will provide years of trouble-free ser-
vice if it receives the normal care you would give any
fine optical instrument.
• Do not expose non-waterproof models to heavy
rain or other excessive moisture.
• If your binocular has roll-down, flexible eyecups, store
it with the eyecups up. This avoids excessive moisture.
• Avoid sharp impacts. Use the included neckstrap
to avoid accidentally dropping the binoculars to
prevent mis-alignment of the optics.
• When not using them, store your binoculars in the
provided case in a cool, dry place.
• Avoid storing the binoculars in hot places, such as
the passenger compartment of a vehicle on a hot
day. The high temperature could adversely affect
the lubricants and sealants. Never leave the bino-
cular where direct sunlight can enter either the
objective or the eyepiece lens. Damage may result
from the concentration (burning glass effect) of
the sun's rays.
• All moving parts of the binocular are permanently
lubricated. Do not try to lubricate them.
