FOCUSING
1. Adjust the interpupillary distance (Fig. 1) until you see a single circular image.
2. The diopter adjustment ring is located directly below the center focus knob. To unlock the diopter adjustment,
pull the ring straight up (Fig. 2).
3. Make sure the diopter adjustment is set to "zero" (center tab of diopter ring is lined up with index mark). Keep
both eyes open at all times.
4. Using the attached lens cap or your hand, cover the objective (front) lens on the right side of the binocular as
you look into the eyepieces.
5. Using the center focus knob, focus on a distant object with fine detail (e.g., brick wall, tree branches, etc) until
it appears as sharp as possible on the left side.
6. Uncover the objective lens on the right side, and cover the left objective lens while continuing to view the same
object.
7. Rotate the unlocked diopter adjustment ring to bring the object into focus in the right side of the binocular.
Avoid over-turning or forcing the diopter mechanism. If you are unable to bring the object into focus in the right
side by adjusting the diopter ring, make sure the left side is still focused and that the center focus knob was not
moved from its original setting. The diopter adjustment only affects the right side.
8. Once the diopter ring is set for your eyesight, push the adjustment ring back down to lock it in place (Fig. 3).
9. Your binocular should now be adjusted for your eyes. Focusing for any distance can now be done simply by
turning the center focus knob. Make a note of the diopter setting you made (dot on the +/- scale of the diopter
ring lined up with the index mark) for future reference.
10. The Elite e 2 also features a special focus lock feature. With the diopter adjustment ring fully down and locked,
push the focus knob down so the green band is not visible (Fig 4). This is useful when you will be observing a
subject at a consistent distance for an extended time period, to make sure you don't accidently shift or bump the
focus setting unintentionally, or when you want to pass the binoculars around in a group that is viewing the same
subject.
