Adjusting the eye relief
The distance between the eyes differs between individuals.
To achieve optimal centring of the eye and eyepiece axis look
through the binoculars and change the angle of the centre axis by
folding or expanding until you have a clear field of view.
Adjusting the focus
Your binoculars have single eyepiece adjustment (1) means. To
focus look at an object approximately 100 meters away. Close
only your left eye and keep turning the right eyepiece setting ring
1 until the object looked at is in sharp focus. Then close only your
right eye and turn the left eyepiece setting 1 until the object you are
looking at is again in sharp focus. The binoculars are now precisely
adjusted to your eyesight.
The single eyepiece setting (1) is designed to give you better perspec-
tive. When switching between objects of varying distance the focus
need only be readjusted if the change in distance is really major.
Reversing the eye-piece cup (3)
Note for spectacles wearers. The rubber eyepiece cups (2) are rever-
sed when using spectacles to look through the binoculars. The maxi-
mum field of view of the binoculars can thus be exploited to the full.
Compass (3)
Your binoculars are equipped with a compass. If you look through
them you will see a scale in degrees (0 - 360) at the lower edge of
your field of view. If 360 is exactly at the centre of the scale you
are looking directly to the north (if 180, to the south).
Compass lighting
In darkness you can turn on the compass lighting by lightly depres-
sing the On/Off button (5). The lighting stays on as long as the
button is depressed.
Changing the batteries (Fig. 2)
Remove the plastic battery compartment cover (4) by raising it
gently. Open the compartment (4) by turning the latch with a coin
and then change the batteries (GP 186). Both batteries must have
the positive (+) pole at the top when inserted in the compartment.
Using the reticule (8)
Distance calculation
To determine the distance of an object you must first know its size.
Look at it and measure the image height on the reticule. In illus-
tration (8) a 12 m high building reaches to 3.9 on the scale. Now
