In the daytime with lens cap on it is normal to observe a fuzzy image. Switching on the night vision device in the daytime is intended for testing purposes only.

The rotating switch has four positions: “Off”, “Auto”, “On”, “IR”. In Auto mode the goggles will switch off automatically when turned upright. This mode saves battery life and allows avoiding greenish shadow on the face, which may disclose the user.

5.3Switching the unit off

After you have finished using the device, turn it off by rotating switch (1, Fig.1) to OFF position. Put a protective lens cap on the lens. Remove the battery from the battery compartment to avoid any damage of the device in case of electrolyte leakage.

5.4Adjusting to individual vision

Turn on the device. Direct the device at an object placed within 8-15m from the viewer. Obtain the sharpest image possible on the eyepiece screen by focusing the eyepiece lens and then the objective lens (2, Fig. 1).
