Focusing

For a pin­sharp image, definition you must adjust the
optics of the binoculars to your individual vision. To do
this, please proceed as follows:
a) First, look at an object far away. With the right eye
closed, turn the focusing knob until the object in view
has become perfectly sharp.
b) Next, look at the same object in the distance with the
left eye closed and turn the dioptre adjustment ring on
the right eyepiece until the object is perfectly sharp.
c) Your MINOX binoculars are now set to the individual
vision of both eyes.
d) To observe objects at various distances, use the focus
adjustment knob to obtain a clear and sharp image.
Attention: Do not use binoculars to look into the
sun, this could lead to irreparable eye damage.

Attaching a tripod

For a shudder­free image, we recommend using a tripod,
especially with binoculars with a higher magnification.
The MINOX tripod adapter (order no. 69730) is available
as an optional accessory for this purpose.
Remove the screw cap (6) on the bottom of the binocu­
lars and attach the MINOX tripod adapter into the screw
socket. Keep the screw cap (6) in a safe place and reat­
tach it after removing the tripod adapter.

Maintenance and care

To provide as much protection as possible for your
MINOX product, it is strongly recommended to use the
carrying case when storing your binoculars.
Carefully remove dirt and dust from the housing with a
soft moist cloth. If your binoculars have been exposed to
saltwater, thoroughly rinse them off with warm water
and dry carefully as saltwater can be aggressive to the
lenses, detrimentally affecting their optical quality.
Contamination of the lenses by foreign bodies like sand,
dust, grease, waterdrops or fingerprints reduce the im­
age quality of your MINOX binoculars. Foreign bodies
should be carefully removed using a very soft brush
before cleaning the lenses. To avoid damage to the lens
surfaces, it is strongly advisable to use specially devel­
oped optical cleaning materials to remove fingerprints,
grease etc. from the lenses. We recommend using the
MINOX optical cleaning set (order nr. 69731).

Serial number

On the left eyepiece you will find the serial number. It is
important that you make a note of this number for the
event of loss.
