OPERATION PRECAUTIONS

OPERATION AND CONTROLS

• Do not open the right and left binocular tubes beyond their limits. Also be careful not to rotate the diopter ring

and focusing ring beyond their limits.

• Avoid rain, water splashes, sand and mud.

• Always protect binoculars/monocular from shock. If you cannot obtain a normal image after dropping or getting

the binoculars/monocular wet, take them immediately to a Nikon authorized service representative.

• When exposed to sudden temperature changes, water condensation may occur on lens surfaces. In this case,

thoroughly dry the binoculars/ monocular at room temperature.

STORAGE

• Water condensation or mold may occur on lens surfaces because of high humidity. Therefore, store the binoculars/

monocular in a cool, dry place. After use on a rainy day or at night, thoroughly dry them at room temperature,

then store in a cool, dry place.

• For long term storage, keep binoculars/ monocular in a plastic bag or an airtight container with a desiccant. If

this is not possible, store in a clean, well-ventilated place, separate from the case, as they are easily affected by

moisture.

• Do not leave the binoculars/monocular in a car on a hot or sunny day, or near heat generating equipment. This

may damage or negatively affect them.

MAINTENANCE & STORAGE

1. Remove dust trapped in the focusing ring, diopter ring, or other rotating parts with a soft brush.

2. After having removed dust with a blower, clean the body surface using a soft, clean cloth. After use at the seaside,

lightly soak a soft, clean cloth with water and wipe off salt that may be on the body surface. Then wipe the body

surface with a dry cloth. Do not use benzene, thinner, or other organic solvent.

3. When removing dust on the lens surface, use a soft oil-free brush.

4. When removing stains or smudges like fingerprints from the lens surfaces, wipe the lenses very gently with a soft

clean cotton cloth. Use a small quantity of pure alcohol (ethanol) or lens cleaner available in stores to wipe

stubborn smudges, from the center of the lens to the outside in a circular motion. Do not use anything hard as it

may scratch the lens surface.
