Cleaning and Care of Binoculars

The lens surfaces of the eView are coated with anti-reflection coatings that can be damaged with careless handling. Avoid touching lens surfaces with fingers or any coarse material. All optics, even if stored, must be cleaned approximately twice a year or whenever they are dirty. The dust that builds up on coat- ings promotes mold growth, which etches glass and destroys coatings. Avoid over-cleaning; it can damage the coatings. Always use lens cleaning tissue and fluid that are specifically designed for multi-coated lenses. Do not use fluids or tissue that is for eyeglasses or household use. Most binoculars and camera lenses are cared for in a similar manner.

To clean the binocular and camera lenses, first make sure your hands are clean. Blow off the lens with a blower bulb or compressed air to remove the larger particles. Have several pieces of tissue ready. Put two drops of lens cleaning fluid on a piece of lens cleaning tissue (never on the lens). Gently wipe the lens. Quickly wipe the excess fluid with a new, dry piece of lens cleaning tissue. On larger lenses, clean only a small area at a time, using new tissue each time. On excessively dirty lenses, wipe across using one stroke for each tissue, alternating wet and dry. The more fresh, clean lens tissue you use, the less likely you are to scratch your lenses. Always avoid excessive pressure or rubbing. It is better to leave a tiny amount of dirt on the lens than to use too much pressure and damage the coatings.

Never disassemble the camera or binocular for any reason, or the warranty will be void.
