Battery Installation

Remove the battery compartment cover using a
coin or screwdriver. Install and orient the CR 2032
battery so the positive (+) side faces upward, then
replace the cover. When replacing the cover, be sure
it is fully screwed down with the o-ring seal in place.

Illumination Control

The reticle can be used without illumination. To activate the reticle
illumination, rotate the illumination dial to the left or right. The dial
shows both red and green numbers, indicating five levels of brightness.
Rotate the dial so the number indicating the desired color and intensity
faces the shooter.

Note: Be sure to turn the dial to zero when done shooting to avoid
running the battery down prematurely.

Rotate dial to the preferred
color and intensity setting.

Reticle Focus

This Vortex Spitfire prism scope uses a
fast focus eyepiece designed to quickly

and easily provide a sharply focused
reticle.

To adjust the reticle focus:

1. Look through the scope at a blank
white wall or up at the sky.

2. Turn the eyepiece focus dial in or
out until the reticle image is as crisp
as possible.

Note: Try to make this particular adjustment quickly, as the eye will
try to compensate for an out-of-focus reticle.

Once this adjustment is complete, it will not be necessary to re-focus
every time you use the scope. However, because your eyesight may
change over time, you should re-check this adjustment periodically.

Warning

Looking directly at the sun through a scope, or any optical instrument,
can cause severe and permanent damage to your eyesight.
