INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
Congratulations on your outstanding new binoculars. Enjoy the impressive experience of
undistorted image reproduction which is distinguished by perfect brilliance and excellent
colour accuracy.
ZEISS brand products are characterised by outstanding optical performance, accurate
processing and long durability.
Please observe the following instructions for use, so that you enjoy optimum use of your
product and it can be a faithful companion to you for many years.
Viewing with and without glasses
If you do not wear glasses when viewing, use the binoculars with the eyecups extended (Fig.
1/A). To do this, turn the eyecups upwards to the top click stop position by turning them to the
left (counter clockwise). The eyecups can be set to four click stop positions – the positions at
the top and bottom and two intermediate positions (Fig. 2). These adjustment options permit
the distance from the exit pupil to be varied according to the specific requirements of each user.
If you wear glasses when viewing, turn the eyecups to the right (clockwise) to the lowest click
stop position as shown in Fig. 1/B.
Cleaning and changing the eyecups
The eyecups (complete modules) can be removed from the binoculars for cleaning or exchange.
Turn out the eyecup counter clockwise to the stop, then unscrew it completely via the thread
(continue to turn in the same direction). After cleaning or exchange, turn the eyecup clockwise to
the lowest click stop position. Then attach the module to the binoculars, through the rubber edge
of the eyepiece tube, turn it in clockwise as far as it will go and tighten it.
Adjustment of the interpupillary distance
Adjust the two barrels relative to each other about the central axis until you see one circular field
of view when viewing with both eyes.
Focusing
The binoculars have a centre focusing mechanism (focusing knob Fig. 3/C) and a dioptre
adjustment wheel. Dioptre adjustment is activated by pulling the focusing knob (Fig. 3/C)
upward.

For focusing, close your right eye and focus the image in the left barrel using the centre
focusing mechanism (Fig. 3/C). Then close your left eye – and if necessary – adjust the focus
in the right barrel using the dioptre adjustment wheel.
The dioptre adjustment wheel is provided with a scale (visible when the focusing knob has been
pulled out, Fig. 3), the signs "+" and "–", and a click stop in the zero position (0 D). The
graduation lines of the scale are used for orientation (setting the dioptre adjustment for different
users).
After completion of this procedure, push the focusing knob back in all the way.
Note: Always use the same object to focus on both images!
For subsequent focusing on varying distances, use the focusing knob only (Fig. 3/C). When the
long ridge of the focusing knob coincides with the arrow on the bridge (Fig. 3/D), the binoculars
have been set to infinity. This only applies if the dioptre adjustment mechanism has snapped in
at the zero position (0 D).
Mounting the carrying strap and the protective covers
The carrying strap, the rainguard and the protective caps for the objective lens are provided in the
packaging. Attach the carrying strap to the eyelets pro-vided on the binoculars and mount the
rainguard on the strap as shown in Figs 4 + 5.
Note: Simply thread the carrying strap through the eyelets on the rainguard.
Before mounting the carrying strap as shown in Fig. 5, adjust the length of the strap as required
by loosening or tightening it accordingly using the clip.
The rain guard needs only to be attached on one side; however, it can be attached to both sides.
Use of the eyepiece cap
The eyepiece cap is held on the eye cup with a snap latch.
Remove the eyepiece cap with your index fingers before using the binoculars.
The eyepiece cap should be reattached after using the binoculars to protect the eyepiece.
The protective caps for the objective lens are attached to the binoculars as shown in Fig. 6.
Mounting on a tripod
The binoculars of the ZEISS VICTORY FL series can be mounted on any commercial camera tripod
using the ZEISS universal tripod adapter for binoculars.
