Adjusting the binoculars

Before you use your MINOX BN 7x50 C / BN 7x50 it
must be adjusted to the your individual requirements.
Observe the following steps for correct use.

Interpupillary distance adjustment

Your MINOX BN 7x50 C / BN 7x50 has a folding bridge
that you can use to adjust the two eyepieces to the
distance between your eyes. Your MINOX BN BN 7x50
C / BN 7x50 is properly adjusted to the interpupillary
distance when you can see one round full circle when
you look through your MINOX binoculars. Adjust your
MINOX binoculars until the two circles are superim-
posed to form one full circle.

Focusing

Your MINOX BN 7x50 C / BN 7x50 has an individual
eyepiece focusing system. The advantage of this
feature is that all observed objects within a range
from 20 meters to infinity can be seen as a pin sharp
image without having to readjust the focusing of your
binoculars to close or far away objects.
The adjustable range of the individual eyepieces is
– 4 up to + 6 diopters.
Proceed as follows to ensure optimum adjustment to
your vision: Choose an observation object at a dis-
tance of about 50 meters.
First close your right eye. Look through the left eye-
piece of your binoculars with your left eye. Turn the
left eyepiece ring in clockwise or counterclockwise
direction until you see a sharp image. Now close your
left eye and adjust the right eyepiece in the same way
by turning the right eyepiece ring. Your binocular is
now adjusted to your individual vision.
Both eyepieces have a diopter scale. Remember your
individual diopter setting for the left and right eye-
piece or mark it with a permanent marker. In this way
you will be able to quickly readjust the binoculars to
your vision if, for example, another person has used
them and changed the settings.
Using the binoculars with
and without eyeglasses
Your MINOX BN 7x50 C / BN 7x50 is fitted with folding
eyecups of flexible rubber. These can be used to adjust
the distance to your eye, depending on whether you
are wearing glasses or not. Those users not wearing
glasses leave the folding eyecups in extended position
