CONSIDERATIONS

DANGER

1. Charge the battery as instructed in the Guide and follow the charge steps and precautions. Incorrect charging can cause heating or damage of the battery or even cause personal injury;
2. Never attempt to open or disassemble the battery; if the battery leaks and the liquid enters the eyes, immediately flush the eyes with water and then take necessary medical care.

WARNING

1. When using the device, keep it as stable as possible and avoid violent shaking;
2. Do not use or store the device in an environment with a temperature exceeding the permissible operating or storage temperature range;
3. Do not directly expose the device to high-intensity thermal radiation sources, such as the sun, lasers and spot welders;
4.  Do not block the holes on the device;
5. Do not strike, throw or shake the device and accessories;
6. Do not disassemble the device body; any attempt to disassemble it can damage it and void your warranty;
7. Do not spill soluble liquids or similar liquids on the device and cables to avoid damage to the device;
8. Do not use the device in an environment with a temperature exceeding the operating temperature of the device to avoid damage to the device;
9. Follow these steps when wiping the device:
10. Non-optical surfaces: Use a clean, soft cloth to wipe the non-optical surfaces of the riflescope if necessary;
11. Optical surfaces: Avoid dirtying the optical surfaces of the lens when using the riflescope, especially touching the lens with your hands, because the sweat on your hands will leave marks on the lens glass and may corrode the optical coating on the glass surface; when the surface of the optical lens is contaminated, carefully wipe it with special lens tissue;
12. Do not place the battery in a hot environment or near a hot object;
13. Do not short-circuit the positive and negative poles of the battery;
14. Do not place the battery in a humid environment or water.

CAUTION

• Do not expose the device to dust or moisture; when using the device in an environment with water, prevent the water from splashing on the device; put on the lens cover when the device is not in use;
• When the device is not in use, put it and all accessories in a special packing box;
• Using the lens for a long time may cause a reduced contrast of the lens and a whitened screen. You can switch the display mode to LCD screen display and then switch it back after some time.

Storage and Transportation

Storage:
A packaged product shall be stored in a well-ventilated and clean environment with a temperature range of -40° C to 70° C, relative humidity not exceeding 95%, and free of condensate and corrosive gas.

Transportation：
During transportation and circulation, the product shall be protected from rain and water and placed flatwise. It shall be protected from violent vibration and impact. During handling, it shall be handled with care and cannot be tossed.

Guide for Common Faults and Troubleshooting

Failure to power on/

off

| The battery capacity is low| Charge the battery
The battery is of poor contact| Take out the battery and replace with the battery box
The external power is not properly connected| Pull the power plug and reinsert
Great difference between the battery capacity display and the actual consumption| The battery runs out| Replace with a fully charged battery
The battery life expires| Replace with a new battery
The infrared image is not clear| The lens is covered with steam or contaminated| Use a professional device to clean the

lens

Incorrect temperature measurement| The temperature measurement parameters are incorrect| Change the parameter settings or restore the defaults
Temperature measurement is performed

immediately after the device is powered on

| We recommend that you start temperature measurement 5-10min after the thermographic camera is powered on to ensure the accuracy
The device is not calibrated for a long time| We recommend that you send the thermographic camera back to us for calibration once a year to obtain accurate temperature measurements
Failure to save files| Files cannot be saved| Delete the pictures and videos in the gallery
The memory card is abnormal| Restart the device, format the card on the device or replace it with a new memory card
