Maintenance Tips
- Clean lenses with microfiber cloth; use optics-safe cleaner only
- Protect HD glass & laser sensors from dust, fingerprints, and moisture
- Keep laser emitter/receiver ports clear for accurate ranging performance
- Replace CR2/CR123 battery as needed; carry a spare for field use
- Turn off rangefinder when not in use to extend battery life
- Store in a cool, dry place; use silica gel to prevent internal fogging
- Wipe dry after rain or humid conditions despite waterproof design
- Avoid dropping; protect internal laser alignment and optics calibration
- Adjust focus, diopter, and interpupillary distance gently
- Use neck strap or harness to prevent accidental falls
