BATTERY
• Only the battery type stated and described in
this manual must be used. Any improper use
of the batteries or the use of unapproved
battery types may result in an explosion!
• Do not expose the battery to sunlight, heat,
humidity or moisture for prolonged periods of
time. It must not be placed in a microwave
oven or a high-pressure container as this
would pose a fire or explosion hazard!
• Never dispose of batteries in fire and never
attempt to heat, recharge, dismantle or break
open a battery.
• Batteries must always be stored out of the
reach of children. Do not leave batteries lying
around, as they could be swallowed by
children or pets.
CARRY STRAP
• The carry strap is usually made of very robust
material. You should therefore keep it out of
the reach of children. A carry strap is not a toy
and poses a strangulation risk.
• Use the carry strap only for its intended
purpose on a camera or on binoculars. Any
other use poses the risk of injury and may pos-
sibly result in damage to the carry strap and is
therefore not permitted.
• Carry straps should also not be used for
cameras/binoculars during sports activities
that pose a risk of entanglement (e.g. when
mountain climbing and similar outdoor
activities).
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
GENERAL INFORMATION
• Do not attempt to take the device apart
yourself. Repairs must only be carried out in
authorized workshops.
• Remove the battery from the housing if you
will not be using the product for an extended
period of time.
• Low temperatures impair battery performance.
Carry the device close to the body in cold
conditions and use a fresh battery.
• Make sure to store the batteries in a cool, dry
place.
• Depleted batteries must never be disposed of
in household waste as they contain toxic
materials that are harmful to the environment.
Battery collection points are provided at most
large retail outlets; alternatively, you can
dispose of old batteries at a local special
waste collection point to ensure correct
recycling.
• Do not touch the glass surfaces with your
fingers, especially if you have previously
applied hand cream, insect repellent, etc.
These substances may contain chemicals that
damage or destroy the coatings on the glass
surfaces.
MEASURING VALUES
• The influence of all ballistically relevant
influencing factors is greatly increased at
longer ranges and considerable variations may
occur. The ballistic values displayed should
therefore only be viewed as a guideline.
• Regardless of whether this information is used,
you are responsible for assessing the relevant
hunting situation.
• Leica Camera AG does not accept liability for
the accuracy of values transmitted from
third-party devices.
• Powerful electric fields, e.g. emanating from
radar systems, may cause errors and/or faulty
values.
• The geomagnetic field can similarly cause
value deviations.
