HOW TO USE:

EYE DISTANCE ADJUSTMENT

Hold the binoculars in a neutral, observational position and rotate the two lens
cones (A) and (B) inward or outward until you see a single circle through the

lenses. Make sure to adjust this every time you use the device.

EYE DISTANCE ADJUSTMENT

FOCUSING

Close your right eye and observe with your left eye. Rotate the central focusing
knob (A) until the image is clear. Next, close your left eye and observe with your
right eye. Rotate the right adjustable eyepiece (B) until the image becomes
clear. At this point the focal lengths on both sides have been adjusted, so you
only need to rotate the central focusing knob to focus on targets.

USERS WITH GLASSES

If you wear glasses, simply fold down the rubber eye flaps (A) and (B), and move

your eyes closer to the eyepieces in order to establish a proper field of view.

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE:

• To remove dust or fingerprints on the lenses, use a clean microfiber cloth

• Only use liquid cleaning products recommended for prescription lenses

• Do not attempt to clean the inside of the device

• Keep your binoculars in a dry, ventilated place when not in use

• Staring at the sun may cause damage to your eyes

BATTERY:

This item has a built-in rechargeable Lithium battery that automatically
charges the camera every time you connect it to a computer via USB cable.
When the battery is low, the LCD display shows “Battery Low” accompanied by a

red indicator light. After recharging the battery, the indicator light will turn off.

INSTALLING MICRO-SD CARD:

The power must be OFF when installing the included Micro-SD card. Make sure
the Micro-SD card (A) is inserted into the correct slot (B) with the printed side
facing down and the gold contact pins facing in. Insert the card until you hear
a click.

To remove the Micro-SD card you must turn the camera OFF. Once it is OFF,
simply push the card inwards to disengage the locking mechanism (the card
will pop out).

It is recommended that you use Class 4 or above SD cards with a minimum of
4GB storage. Low speed cards do not support 1080p recording, so this could
result in lower quality video.

To safely use your Micro-SD card, do not remove it or turn off the power of your

device when the card is being read. Always format a new card before using it.
