User manual BUSHNELL ELITE

[. . . ] XTR is a system of lens and prism coatings that achieve the highest possible light transmission and color fidelity. The new Elite chassis is constructed with magnesium for reduced weight (up to 20% lighter than other premium quality binoculars) without compromising strength. This manual will help you optimize performance by explaining how you can adjust the binocular to your eyes, and how to care for this instrument. Read the instructions carefully before using your binocular. [. . . ] Uncover the objective lens on the right side, then cover the left objective lens, and view the same object. Rotate the diopter adjustment ring (make sure it is still unlocked-see step 2), to focus the same distant object in the right side. Avoid over turning or forcing the diopter mechanism-if you are unable to bring the object into focus with the diopter adjustment, make sure the left side is still focused correctly with the center knob. The diopter adjustment only affects the right side. Once the diopter is set for your eyesight, push the adjustment ring back down to lock it in place. 10. Your binocular should now be adjusted for your eyes. Focusing for any distance can now be done simply by turning the center focus wheel Make a note of the diopter setting for your eyes (mark on the diopter dial that is lined up with the index dot) for future reference. 3 Elite Binoc 1LIM. indd 5 11/23/04 8:52:47 AM WATERPROOF / FOGPROOF Your Bushnell Elite binocular has been designed and built utilizing the latest waterproof and fogproof technology. Elite binoculars are O-ring sealed for complete moisture protection. Fogproof protection is achieved from dry nitrogen purging that removes all internal moisture. 3 and 4) Your Bushnell Elite binocular is fitted with twist-up eyecups designed for your comfort and to exclude extraneous light. For users without eyeglasses, while pulling the eyecups up, rotate the eyecups slightly counter-clockwise until they lock into the fully "up" position (fig. If you wear glasses, make sure the eyecups are in the down position- this will bring your eyes closer to the binocular lens, allowing you to see the full field of view. To lower the eyecups from the full "up" position, pull them up slightly, then rotate them clockwise while pushing down (fig. It is also possible to set the eyecups to positions "in between" fully up and fully down, which may suit some individuals better. 5 and 6) To attach the neckstrap, first align the strap with the plastic fastener positioned as shown in Figure 5. Push the fastener into the socket, then rotate it counter clockwise until the strap is parallel with the binocular tubes as shown in Figure 6. You will feel the fastener latch into place as you rotate it. To remove the strap, return the fastener to the original position ( Figure 5), and pull it straight up out of the socket. 6 4 Elite Binoc 1LIM. indd 6 11/23/04 8:52:48 AM INSTRUCTIONS FOR CARE Your Bushnell Elite binocular will provide years of trouble-free service if it receives the normal care you would give any fine optical instrument.
