1) Verify that the battery is inserted into the battery compartment in accordance with polarity mark-

ings on the monocular’s body.
2) Verify that the objective lens is securely closed.
3) without removing the protective lens cap, activate the unit. While looking through the eyepiece of

your unit, observe the scene. Verify that the green light indicating correct IIT operation is illuminated.

1) Adjust the diopter. Turn the diopter adjustment ring clockwise until it stops. While looking through

2) Adjust the lens’ focus. To focus your monocular at different distances, rotate the objective lens.

OPERATIOn In nIgHTTIME cOnDITIOnS

cAuTIOn:

Avoid exposing the night vision device to bright light sources. Bright light emitted by fires,

automobile headlights, lanterns, projectors, etc. will damage your Avenger.

1) Visually estimate the illuminance level in the viewing area. Operation of the device with the objective

lens cap removed is safe when the illuminance level is less than 1 lux; at an illuminance level of 1 lux,

you will barely be able to read a newspaper, even after your eyes have adapted to the low level of light.
2) Verify that the battery is inserted into the battery compartment in accordance with the polarity

markings on the monocular’s body.
3) Remove the front lens cap.
4) Activate the unit. After a momentary delay, green light indicating correct IIT operation will appear.
