Spots In The Image

You may see spots in the image. These vary from device to device and are cosmetic blemishes inside the device. These are normal for Night Vision devices and are NOT a defect.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Scope will not turn on.

Check that the batteries are installed properly. Replace the batteries with new ones. Check the battery contacts to ensure they are clean and free of corrosion. Check that the power is in the “ON” position.

Image is not focused.

Adjust the focus on the Eyepieces. Adjust the Objective Lenses. If still no improvement, clean the lenses; they may be foggy or dusty.

Visibility decreases or disappears.

Bright light sources such as headlights may cause visibility to degrade or disappear completely. Turn the Power OFF and turn the scope away from the light source. The unit will restore itself in 1 or 2 minutes. Conditions such as fog or extremely dark environments will decrease visibility.

Scope flashes.

The scope may flash when used in a bright environment. It may also flash during the first few seconds of use in dark environments.
