FOCUSING

To ensure a crisp, sharp image, the spotting scope
must be focused. To focus the spotting scope,
slowly rotate the focus dial until the image in
the eyepiece is clear and sharp. If you feel that
the focus dial will not rotate any further, you
have reached the end of its travel and need to
turn the dial in the opposite direction.

CHANGING THE MAGNIFICATION

To change the magnification of the zoom
eyepiece, simply rotate the magnification dial
in the clockwise direction to increase the
magnification and counterclockwise to decrease
the magnification. When changing magnification
the scope will need to be refocused. The largest
field of view and brightest images will always be
at the lowest magnification.

CARE AND STORAGE

Your Celestron spotting scope will provide you
years of dependable service if it is cared for and
stored properly.

1.

P

rotect the spotting scope from impact and
do not force any of the moving parts beyond
their limits.

2. Protect the optics of your spotting scope by
putting on all lens caps when not in use.

3.

Store your spotting scope in a cool, dry place
whenever possible.

4. When storing for an extended period of time,
place the spotting scope in a plastic bag or
airtight container with a desiccant.

5.

Do not leave the spotting scope in a car on a
hot/sunny day or near anything that generates
heat as this may cause damage.

6. Clean any dust, dirt or water that may get

on the spotting scope or inside moving
parts as soon as possible to prevent any
unforeseen damage.

6 I ENGLISH

CLEANING

Proper cleaning of the lenses is essential to
maintaining the optical integrity of your spotting
scope. Dirty lenses diminish the amount of light
transmitted through the spotting scope and your
overall viewing experience.

1.

Remove any dust on the lenses with a soft lens
brush or can of pressurized air.

2.

Remove any fingerprints, stains or smudges
from the lens surface with a soft, clean lens

cloth or lens tissue by rubbing in a circular
motion. Start in the middle of the lens and
work your way to the edges. Breathe lightly on
the lens to provide moisture if needed.

3.

F

or a more thorough cleaning we recommend
the use of a lens/optics cleaning kit available
at most photo or optical shops. Follow the
directions supplied with the cleaning kit for
best results.
