General Notes

This top quality optical-electronic product is fitted with

a Generation 2+ residual light amplifier. The field of use

includes observation and orientation aid in twilight,

moonlight, starlight or darkness (in combination with

the infra-red illuminator).

The temperature range is from -20° C to 40° C. With its

compact dimensions it is easy to handle and ready for use

at any time. When used and cared for correctly this Night-

Vision scope guarantees satisfactory operation for many

years.

Operating instructions

For use in daylight

Inserting the battery

Please ensure that the lens of your Night-Vision scope

is covered by the lens cap. Remove the battery compart-

ment lid and insert the battery (1 x CR 123A). Always

observe correct poling. Fully close the battery compart-

ment again.

Switching on

To protect the sensitive image tube against irreparable

damage, never remove the lens cap in daylight. The

small opening in the center of the cap is adequately

dimensioned for daylight use. Actuate the main switch.

The green LED display lights up. When you look through

the eyepiece you will see a bright, green, fluorescing

image.

Switching off

Actuate the main switch. When you look through the

eyepiece you will still see the green image for a few

minutes, before it disappears. This is normal and not a

fault, because the Night-Vision scope always switches

off gradually.

For use at night

Switching on

Remove the lens cap. Actuate the main switch. The gre-

en LED lights up. When you look through the eyepiece

you will see a green, fluorescing image.

Adjustment

Aim at an object situated at a distance of 20-30 m

(22-33 yds). Turn the focusing ring on the eyepiece to

get a sharp image. Then turn the front focusing ring to

make the image sharper still. Repeat this procedure if

necessary.

Infra-red illuminator

The infra-red illuminator provides you with an improved

imaging result under inadequate light conditions. After

actuating the infra-red illuminator switch the image

appears brighter.

Switching off

Actuate the main switch. When you look through the

eyepiece the green image remains visible for a few more

minutes, before it disappears. This is normal and not a

fault, because the Night-Vision scope always switches off

gradually.

Important note:

For longer battery service life we recommend you not to

leave the Night-Vision scope switched on continuously. It

is better to switch it off every now and again.

Save keeping

To protect the lens always fit the lens cap before putting

the Night-Vision scope away in the every-ready case.

Important information

To avoid irreparable damage to your Night-Vision scope,

please always observe the following instructions:

- If you wish to use the device in daylight, never remove

the lens cap. The small opening in the center of the cap is

adequately dimensioned for using the device in daylight.

- Never disassemble the scope.

- Always insert the batteries as specified and observe

correct poling.

- Do not use an external power supply.

- Remove the batteries from the battery compartment if

the device is not being used for a prolonged period.

- Always cover the lens with the lens cap when not in use.

- Do not expose the device to direct sunlight.

- Do not keep the device under extremely low or high

temperatures.

- Do not keep the device in damp, dusty or dirty areas.

- Keep the device safe from any external influence.

- Never subject the device to knocks or impact.

Advice on care

Protect the Night-Vision scope against falling, damp, dirt

and extreme temperatures. Protect all optical surfaces

against damp and abrasive agents. These may otherwise

damage the anti-reflection coating.

Only remove dust and dirt from the lens using a soft, dry

cloth. For safety reasons please remove the batteries!

Always transport the scope in the provided ever-ready

case.

Troubleshooting

The Night-Vision scope does not switch on

Check that the batteries are correctly installed.

Check the performance of the batteries.

No image appears

Aim at an object. Turn the eyepiece adjustment until you

get a sharp image. Then turn the lens focusing ring to

improve the sharpness further.

Repeat this procedure if necessary.

Flashes

During the first two minutes after switching on the scope,

flashes may occur. If this flashing continues the

surrounding area may be too bright. This can occur even

with mounted lens cap. In darker surroundings the flash

occurrence will become less or cease completely.

The device fogs up

If the device is used at low temperatures and is then

suddenly exposed to a warmer ambient temperature,

condensation may develop on the cold surface of the

device. It can take up to 5 hours before the scope has

acclimatized to the ambient temperature.

The image diminishes or disappears

Excessive light (moonlight, spotlights or projectors) can

lead to faulty imaging. Move the scope away from the

light source immediately. The image will be restored wit-

hin a period of two minutes.

Imaging results can also only be achieved at short

distances if there is severe fog, haze or under extremely

dark conditions.

Black dots in the visual field

When you view the image of your Night-Vision scope

through the eyepiece you may perceive small black dots.

This is not a quality fault but a typical feature of night-

vision equipment of this type.

Light power of image tube lessens

The light power of the image tube decreases in the course

of its service life. When the Night-Vision scope is used

correctly the service life is approximately 10,000 hours.

The service life is reduced if the Night-Vision scope is

exposed to strong light sources such as street lamps or

headlights/spotlights.

The image tube is defective

The image tube is subject to natural wear.

If the light amplification of the image tube becomes

less, please send your Night-Vision scope directly to the

MINOX Customer Service where a new image tube can

be inserted, if neccessary.
