User Instructions
Binoculars can be a useful companion when traveling, going to sporting and leisure events or used as part of a hobby such as birdwatching or astronomy. To help you get the best results from your equipment please read the following instructions carefully.
Adjusting to obtain a single picture
To adjust to the spacing of your eyes simply rotate the two sides of the
binocular around the center hinge until a single rounded picture is obtained
when looking through both eyepieces.
Adjusting for maximum sharpness
Many people have slightly different vision between their eyes. When using
binoculars, this difference can be easily compensated for by setting the
diopter adjustment located above the focusing wheel.
To set the binoculars correctly, close your right eye and look through the
left eyepiece with your left eye and using the center focus wheel focus on an
object of your choice until it is clear and sharp. Next, close your left eye
and look through the right eyepiece with your right eye. You may find the
object being viewed is not absolutely sharp and this can be corrected by
pulling out and rotating the diopter adjustment wheel (but without turning the
center focus wheel) until the object being viewed becomes sharp. Push down the
diopter adjustment wheel to lock in position. The binoculars are now set and a
perfectly clear and sharp image should be attainable when using both eyes. To
focus at different distances simply rotate the center focus wheel.
Retractable rubber eyecups and wearing glasses
Opticron Aurora BGA VHD binoculars provide the full field of view when wearing
glasses. To get the maximum field of view with glasses on, turn the eyecup
clockwise into the `down’ position. Remember to return them to the upright
position if you or anybody else wants to use them without glasses.
Care and cleaning
Binoculars require little maintenance but occasionally the outside surfaces of
the eyepieces and objective lenses will need cleaning. To avoid damaging these
surfaces please read the following carefully.
(i) Gently remove excess dirt and dust using compressed air or a lens cleaning
brush.
Caution: Hard and persistent rubbing of dirty surfaces can cause abrasive
scratches on the surface of the glass which may distort viewing.
(ii) Breathe on exposed glass surface and then wipe with an optical cleaning
cloth (code 30277) in a circular motion until the surface is clean again.
Do not attempt to dismantle the instrument as this will invalidate the guarantee.
Cold weather
In cold weather the external lens surfaces may steam up when moving the
instrument from cooler air outside to warmer air inside. If this happens,
leave the instrument to stand for a few minutes until any condensation
evaporates.
WARNING
Never under any circumstances use a binocular to view the Sun. Doing so may
cause serious damage to your eyes.
We hope you will get a great deal of pleasure from your Opteron Aurora BGA VHD binocular. If you have any problems or damage it in any way our Service Department is on hand to help you.
