Non-compliance with the following points may result in serious injury or death.

LASER

  • The use of any operations not described in this manual or any alterations on the device may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
  • The laser device is active and emitting an invisible laser beam as long as the display in the eyepiece is active. Never point the laser focusing optics at a person or animal.
  • Do not press any function button while aiming at a human eye or while looking into the optics from the lens side.
  • Never aim the laser at an eye.
  • Do not aim the laser at people or animals.

GENERAL INFORMATION

  • Avoid looking directly at bright light sources with your Leica Calonox 2 to prevent eye injury.

CAUTION
Non-compliance with the following points may result in personal injury or damage to the device.

LASER

  • Avoid touching the function button while the distance measurement function is not in use to prevent an accidental activation of the laser beam.
  • Do not attempt to disassemble, reassemble or repair Leica Calonox 2 yourself. Emitting laser radiation may pose a serious health risk. The manufacturer warranty is void, once a device was disassembled, reassembled or repaired.
  • Stop using the device immediately if the device housing is damaged or the device emits a strange sound after a fall, or behaves unexpectedly for any other reason.

GENERAL INFORMATION

  • Keep the device out of the reach of small children.
  • Do not use the device while walking. You might trip and fall.
  • Do not attempt to disassemble or modify the device; exposing the internal electronics may cause damage, injury or electric shock.

RECHARGEABLE BATTERY

  • New batteries must be charged before initial use to be ready for activation in the device. A full charge is recommended, as the batteries are delivered in an only partially charged state.
  • Never throw batteries into a fire as they may explode.
  • Keep the battery away from sources of heat in case of leakage or if you smell burning. Leaked fluid can catch fire!
  • Make sure that the power socket is freely accessible at all times.

SENSOR
• Cosmic radiation (e.g. during flights) may cause pixel defects.

Wi-Fi/BLUETOOTH®

  • Wirelessly transmitted data (images) may be intercepted by third parties. The safety of data transmitted via wireless networks cannot be guaranteed.

  • Do not use the device in areas where it may be exposed to magnetic fields, static electricity, or radio frequency interference (RFI).

  • Do not use the transmitter in the immediate vicinity of microwave ovens or other devices, where the reception of wireless signals may be disrupted by magnetic fields, static electricity, or RFI.
    Other wireless devices operating in the 2.4 GHz band in the vicinity of the device may cause mutual interference.

  • The Bluetooth transmitter operates in the 2.4 GHz frequency band. The standard output strength is approx. 3.16 mW.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

GENERAL INFORMATION

  • Do not attempt to take the device apart yourself. Repairs must only be carried out by authorized workshops.
  • Low temperatures impair battery performance. Carry the device close to the body in cold conditions and use a fresh battery.
  • Do not touch the glass surfaces with your fingers, especially if you have previously applied hand cream, insect repellent, etc. These substances may contain chemicals that damage or destroy the coatings on the glass surfaces.
  • When used as a hand-held device, a carrying strap should generally be used to prevent possible damage to the device from falling.

MEASURING VALUES

  • Regardless of whether this information is used, you are responsible for assessing the relevant hunting situation.
  • Powerful electric fields, e.g. emanating from radar systems, may cause errors and/or faulty values.
  • The geomagnetic field can similarly cause value deviations.

TERMS OF GUARANTEE OF LEICA CAMERA AG

Dear Leica Customer,
congratulations on the purchase of your new Leica product – you are now the proud owner of a world-class brand product.
In addition to your statutory warranty claims against your seller, we, Leica Camera AG (“LEICA”), grant you voluntary warranty services for your Leica product in accordance with the following stipulations (“Leica Warranty”). The Leica warranty therefore does not limit your statutory rights as a consumer under applicable law or your rights as a consumer against the dealer with whom you have concluded the purchase contract.

THE LEICA-GUARANTEE
You have purchased a Leica product that has been manufactured according to special quality guidelines and tested by experienced specialists during the various stages of production. We provide the following Leica Warranty, valid as of April 1, 2023, for this Leica product and including the accessory parts in the original packaging. Please note that we do not offer any warranty for commercial use.
We offer an extended warranty for some Leica products, provided you register for a Leica account. Please visit www.leica-camera.com for more details.

SCOPE OF THE LEICA-GUARANTEE
During the warranty period, complaints based on manufacturing and material defects will be remedied free of charge, at LEICA’s discretion, by way of repair, replacement of defective parts, or exchange for a similar Leica product in perfect condition. Replaced parts or products become the property of LEICA.
Further claims of any kind and on any legal grounds whatsoever in connection with this Leica Warranty are excluded.

EXCLUDED FROM THE LEICA WARRANTY
Parts subject to wear and tear (e.g. eyecups, leather coverings, carrying straps, armoring, batteries), and parts under mechanical stress are excluded from the Leica Warranty, unless the defect was caused by manufacturing or material defects. That also applies to any exterior damage.

LAPSE OF CLAIMS UNDER THE LEICA-GUARANTEE
Claims under the warranty are void if the defect in question is due to improper handling; they may also be void if e.g. third-party accessories have been used, the Leica product has not been opened professionally or has not been repaired professionally. Claims for warranty services shall similarly be void if the serial number is unrecognizable.

ASSERTION OF THE LEICA-GUARANTEE
We require a copy of the proof of purchase of your Leica product from a LEICA- authorized dealer (“Authorized Leica Dealer”) before we can accept any claim under the warranty. The purchase receipt must show the date of purchase, the Leica product with its article number and serial number, and details about the Authorized Leica Dealer. We reserve the right to request the original receipt. Alternatively, you may send us a copy of the warranty card; please note that the Warranty Card must be filled out correctly, and the product must have been purchased from an Authorized Leica Dealer.
