Safety Precautions

WARNING!

Doing so may seriously damage the eyes. (Fig. 1)

CAUTION!

• Do not leave the binoculars in an unstable place. They may fall and cause injury.

• Do not look through the binoculars while walking. You may walk into something and get hurt.

• Do not swing the binoculars by their straps. They may hit someone and cause injury.

• The soft case, strap, and external materials utilized on binoculars and rubber eyecups may deteriorate due to

aging and stain clothes. To prevent this, check their condition before each use, and consult with the shop where

you bought them if such deterioration is found.

• If you use the rubber eyecups for a long period of time, you may suffer skin inflammation. If you develop any

symptoms, consult a doctor immediately.

• Be careful not to pinch your finger when adjusting interpupillary distance. Be particularly careful if you let small

children use the binoculars.

• Do not leave the polyethylene bag used for packaging within small children's reach. Children may put it on their

mouths and suffocate.

• Be careful that small children do not inadvertently swallow the eyecup. If it does happen, consult a doctor

immediately.
