SAFETY REMARKS

- Once you have attached the carry strap, please make sure that the clips are mounted correctly to prevent the device falling.
- The carry strap is usually made of very robust material. You should therefore keep it out of the reach of children. A carry strap is not a toy and poses a strangulation risk.

- Do not attempt to take the device apart yourself. Repairs must only be carried out in authorized workshops.

- The device must not come into contact with insect repellent sprays or other aggressive chemicals. Petroleum spirit, thinner and alcohol must not be used for cleaning. Some chemicals and liquids may damage the device housing or its surface coating.
- Always rinse off any traces of salt water! Dried salt crystals could damage the surfaces.
- Make a note of the serial number of your device, as this information will be extremely important in case of loss.
EYEPIECE
- An eyepiece can have the effect of a magnifying glass when exposed to direct frontal sunlight. The device must therefore be protected against extended exposure to direct sunlight. Storing the device in the shade or ideally in its case will help prevent damage to the device interior.

- Do not use alcohol or chemical cleaning solutions on the optics or housing.
- Do not use excessive force when cleaning a severely soiled lens surface. The coating is abrasion resistant, but not impervious to sand or salt crystals.
- The housing should be cleaned using a damp leather cloth only. Using a dry cloth may cause friction, which may result in a static discharge.
- Always rinse off any traces of salt water! Dried salt crystals could damage the surfaces.
- The device should be stored in a well-ventilated, dry and cool place to prevent fungal growth (particularly important in humid climates).
