Frequently Asked Questions - Teton HD Alpen Optics

How to adjust the diopter on Alpen Optics Teton HD binoculars?

First adjust the interpupillary distance. Set the diopter ring to zero. Cover the objective lens on the diopter side (usually right) and focus using the center wheel on a distant object. Then cover the other objective and adjust the diopter ring until a sharp image is obtained. Note the setting for future use.

How to clean the binocular lenses?

Gently blow away dust or use a soft brush. For stains, use a microfiber cloth in circular motions. For deep cleaning, apply lens cleaning fluid or isopropyl alcohol to the cloth, never directly on the lens.

Can I use a tripod with these binoculars?

Yes, the Teton HD binoculars have threading on the center axis for tripod mounting. Unscrew the protective cap and use a compatible binocular tripod adapter (not included). This allows stable observation.

How to attach the included neck strap?

Thread the end of the strap from bottom to top through the binocular's attachment loop. Then pass the end through the formed loop and pull tight. Adjust to desired length.

Are Alpen Optics Teton HD binoculars waterproof?

Yes, this model is waterproof thanks to an O-ring seal. It is also fogproof with a dry nitrogen purge. Check the packaging for confirmation.

What is the warranty for Alpen Optics binoculars?

The ALPEN Deluxe warranty has no end date from the day of purchase. Warranty extension is possible after registration on the website www.alpenoptics.de/warranty_terms.

What if I wear glasses?

Lower the eyecups to the bottom position (roll or twist them down). This brings your eyes closer to the eyepiece and allows you to see the full field of view without tunnel effect.

Can I look at the sun with these binoculars?

No, never look directly at or near the sun, as this can cause irreversible blindness. Children should be supervised.

How to adjust interpupillary distance?

Hold the binoculars in viewing position and spread or bring the two halves together until a single circular field is obtained. This adjustment should be done before each use.

Where to recycle the binoculars at end of life?

Drop off the device and its accessories at a store or recycling center. Consult www.quefairedemesdechets.fr for collection points. Prefer repair or donation.

Eyecup Adjustment

Your ALPEN binocular is fitted with eyecups which can be rolled or twisted up or down (depending on your model) to optimize the view for your eyes and to exclude extraneous light. If you are not wearing eyeglasses or sunglasses, keep the eyecups fully extended („up“ position). If you are wearing glasses, roll down the eyecups or twist them to the down position. This will bring your eyes closer to the binocular's eyepiece (ocular) lens to ensure you can see the entire image (full field of view with no “cutoff” or “tunnel vision”).

IPD (Interpupillary Distance) Adjustment

The distance or spacing between the center of the pupils, called "interpupillary distance" (IPD) varies from person to person. To adjust the binocular to match your eyes, follow these simple steps:

1. Hold your binocular in the normal viewing position. Grasp each barrel firmly.
2. Move the barrels closer together or further apart until you see a single circular field (don't worry about focus yet).
3. Always re-set your binocular to this position before using it.

Diopter Adjustment and Focusing

1. Adjust eyecups interpupillary distance as described in the previous sections.
2. Set the diopter adjustment ring to zero and view a distant object.
3. Keep both eyes open at all times.
4. Using a lens cover or your hand, cover the objective (front) lens of the same side of the binocular that has the diopter adjustment ring. This is usually the right side.
5. Using the center focus wheel, focus on a distant object with fine detail (e.g., brick wall, tree branches, etc.) until it appears as sharp as possible.
6. Uncover the objective lens on the diopter side, cover the other objective lens, the left side, then view the same object.
7. Using the diopter adjustment ring, move the diopter adjustment marker to the "+" or "-" till you reach focus.

Caution should be used as over turning or forcing the diopter ring can cause damage or cause the eyepiece to break away from the chassis.

Besoin d'aide?

prevent mis-alignment of the optics.

• When not using them, store your binoculars in the provided case in a cool, dry place.
• Avoid storing the binoculars in hot places, such as the passenger compartment of a vehicle on a hot day. The high temperature could adversely affect the lubricants and sealants. Never leave the binocular where direct sunlight can enter either the objective or the eyepiece lens. Damage may result from the concentration (burning glass effect) of the sun's rays.
• All moving parts of the binocular are permanently lubricated. Do not try to lubricate them.

Disposal

Dispose 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.

To Clean Your Binoculars Lenses

1. Blow away any dust or debris on the lens (or use a soft lens brush).
2. To remove fingerprints or other smears, clean with a soft cotton cloth rubbing in a circular motion. A “microfiber” cleaning cloth (available from camera or computer retailers) is ideal for the routine cleaning of your optics.
3. For a more thorough cleaning, photographic lens tissue and photographic-type lens cleaning fluid or isopropyl alcohol may be used. Always apply the fluid to the cleaning cloth - ver directly on the lens.
