Spots in the Image.
You may see spots in the image. these vary from binocular to binocular and are cosmetic blemishes inside the scope. these
are normal for Night Vision binocular and are not a defect.
Binocular will not turn on.
Check that the battery was installed properly. Replace the battery with a new one. Check the battery contacts to ensure they
are clean and free of corrosion.
this night vision binocular contains a light sensor on the right side (8). this sensor is a bright light protection circuit. Do not
cover up this sensor when using in dark conditions. If focusing the unit during the day, (remember to do so with objective lens
caps on), you will need to cover this sensor with your finger or black electrical tape.

Image is not focused.
Adjust the focus on the Eyepieces. You must be at least 1.5 ft./ .46 meters from the subject you are viewing. If no improvement,
clean lenses, they may be foggy or dusty.
Visibility decreases or disappears.
Night vision devices work by amplifying available light - they need reasonable levels of natural moonlight/IR light to give good
results. Bright light sources such as headlights may cause visibility to degrade or disappear completely. Never point your scope
towards such bright light sources or switch it on in a bright environment/daylight with the lens caps off. If exposed to bright light,
protection circuits will turn the scope off automatically - it can function again after 1 or 2 minutes. Poor atmospheric conditions
such as fog or extremely dark environments will decrease the visibility of the unit. Infra Red light sources, which night scopes are
sensitive to, will increase range capability in very low light conditions.
Binocular flashes.
the binocular may flash when used in a bright environment. It may also flash during the first few seconds of use in dark
environments.
