BATTERIES
Two (2) Type AAA alkaline 1.5 V batteries are required to operate the Bushnell® Holosight® XLP. The
Bushnell® Holosight® XLP is designed to maintain constant brightness at a particular setting even as the
batteries drain through normal use. The reticle brightness will not fade gradually as the batteries drain,
but will shut down abruptly. The fi rst indication of the batteries draining is the reticle image blinking
when the unit is turned on (see Electronic Features Section). Another indication of low batteries is the
reticle image blinking off and on during recoil. With high recoil guns, this can occur before the battery
check indicates low battery condition. If the reticle image blinks during recoil or turns off suddenly,
replace the batteries. Read and follow the battery replacement and battery check procedures described
in this Manual. Alkaline batteries are constructed differently by manufacturers. Tests show some brands
are more susceptible to degradation by the shock of recoil. The use of Eveready Energizer® batteries with
the Bushnell® Holosight® XLP is recommended.
