Eyepieces for spectacle wearers

Depending on the model, your binoculars are equipped with either twist-up eyecups (2a) or rubber eyecups (2b). Since there is a larger distance between the binocular eyepiece and the pupil for those wearing glasses, both eyecup varieties can be adjusted individually.

Twist-up Eyecups (2a)

Screw in the twist-up eyecups (2a) to use the binoculars while wearing glasses. If you are not wearing glasses, unscrew the eyecups to achieve the required distance from your pupils.

OR

Rubber Eyecups (2b)

To use the binoculars while wearing glasses, turn the rubber eyecups (2b) toward the sides and down. If you are not wearing glasses, leave the eyecups in the upright position to achieve the required distance from your pupils.

Adjusting the eyepiece distance

The distance between your eyes differs between individuals. To achieve perfect interaction between your eyes and the eyepieces of your binoculars, set the angle at the centre of the binoculars (1) so that you see a circular image (10). Note this setting for later use.

Adjusting the focus

Look through your binoculars with your right eye closed. Now adjust the image for your left eye by turning the centre wheel (6) until it is sharp and clear. Close your left eye and adjust the image for your right eye by turning the dioptre ring (3) until it is also sharp and clear.

Mounting the binoculars on a tripod

Your binoculars have a threaded tripod connection (9) built in.

The required tripod adapter is available in stores as an optional accessory (Art. No. 19-16000 or

NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC™

19-16500). With this accessory, you are able to mount your binoculars on a tripod with a DIN mounting thread (e.g. Art. No. 49-22100).

! NOTES on cleaning

• Clean the eyepieces and lenses only with a soft, lint-free cloth, like a microfi bre cloth. To avoid scratching the lenses, use only gentle pressure with the cleaning cloth.
• To remove more stubborn dirt, moisten the cleaning cloth with an eyeglass-cleaning solution and wipe the lenses gently.
• Protect the device from dust and moisture. After use, particularly in high humidity, let the device acclimatize for a short period of time, so that the residual moisture can dissipate before storing. Remove the dust cover and store it in the included bag during use.

DISPOSAL

• Dispose of the packaging materials properly, according to their type, such as paper or cardboard. Contact your local waste-disposal service or environmental authority for information on the proper disposal.
• Please take the current legal regulations into account when disposing of your device. You can get more information on the proper disposal from your local waste-disposal service or environmental authority.
