Warning! After transportation or keeping the device at temperature lower than –25°C (–13°F), the device must be warmed up to ambient temperature for at least 6 hours before operating.

Precautions: SIB 16x40 GR is a sophisticated precision optical instrument equipped with electronics. Therefore, it should be handled with due care.

•Keep your device away from direct sunlight, impacts, dust, moisture, and sudden changes of temperatures.

•Do not keep the device at temperatures higher than 50oC (122oF).

•Do not touch the optical surfaces with fingers. Doing so may damage the anti-reflection coating.

•Avoid shocks and sharp jolts.

•Cleaning of optical surfaces is only allowed with professional camera lens cleaning supplies.

•To clean the exterior of the device, use a soft clean cloth.

•Do not take the cover off the lens if not necessary.

•Keep away from heating appliances and central heating.

•Make sure to switch off the unit during periods of non-operation.

•Remove the batteries when storing the device for long period of time.

•Do not apply superfluous efforts at work with lens assembly, agile elements and thread connections.

•Repair works can be only made by the manufacturer.

•Due to considerable optical magnification of the optional night eyepiece some small structures inside the tube coating in the form of dark and/or white points may be seen in the field of view, which does not affect the serviceability of the device.
