Replacing Batteries; Electronic Features - Bushnell HOLOsight 510023 Instruction Manual

Model 510023/510023AP – is powered by two N type 1.5 volt Alkaline batteries. We recommend
the use of EVEREADY® ENERGIZER® batteries with the Bushnell HOLOsight in cold weather.
Please note that there is a 12 Volt battery that is approximately the same size as the Type N 1.5 volt
battery. DO NOT USE THE 12 VOLT BATTERY. It will severely damage your sight.
Model 520022 – is powered by two AA type 1.5 volt Alkaline batteries. This AA version of the
HOLOsight can utilize various types of batteries. Bushnell recommends ENERGIZER® batteries
for regular use. NiMH rechargeable batteries are the most cost effective in the long run, but do need
to be charged regularly as they do not hold a charge in storage well. For cold temperatures, Lithium
AA batteries offer the longest battery life. However, please note that the battery test function which
is designed to work with Alkaline batteries does not function accurately with Lithium batteries.
It is a good idea to change batteries before an extended hunting trip or match.

REPLACING BATTERIES

Remove the battery compartment by lifting up on the locking cam lever and carefully sliding the
battery compartment away and up from the sight housing (Figure 2). After the battery compartment is
removed, slide the batteries out and replace them with a fresh set. The labels on the bottom of battery
compartment show the correct battery orientation. To re-install the battery compartment, point the
sight towards the ground and slide battery compartment onto base. Make sure there is enough clearance
between the contact and the batteries to avoid bending the contacts. Hold the battery compartment
down firmly against the base and close the locking cam. Before you push down on the cam lever, make
sure the battery compartment sits all the way down and parallel to the base. Verify correct battery
installation immediately by turning on the sight and checking if the holographic reticle appears.

ELECTRONIC FEATURES

All electronic controls are push-button switches located at the rear of the unit housing as shown in
Figure 1. To ensure proper operation of the push button switches we recommend pressing firmly
on the center of the switch.
1. ON/Auto Battery Check
Depressing the ON/OFF push-button switch will turn the sight ON. The sight will
automatically perform a battery check every time it is turned on. If the batteries have less than
20% of life left, the sight will turn on with the reticle image blinking on and off for 5 seconds. If
the remaining battery life is more than 20%, the sight will turn on with a steady reticle pattern.
The battery condition can be checked any time by turning the sight off and back on.
2. OFF
To turn the sight off, depress the ON/OFF button. Verify by looking through heads-up display
window.
