compartment to energize the goggles.

The IR source is a light that is invisible to the
unaided eye for use during conditions of extreme
darkness. However, the light from the IR source
can be detected by the enemy using night vision
devices.
NOTE
Some goggles contain an additional momentary IR
function. For momentary IR, continue to turn the
power switch clockwise; past ON and without
pulling. The power switch will return to the ON
position when released.
