INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on the purchase of your SIG SAUER®KILO2400ABS™ Laser Rangefinder. The
KILO2400ABS is the world’s most advanced rangefinder featuring an embedded Applied Ballistics
calculator, onboard environmental sensors and Bluetooth for synchronizing custom profiles with a free,
downloadable ballistic app for your iOS or Android smartphone. Your purchase includes a tripod adapter,
smartphone jack wind meter, Molle bag, nylon carry bag, lanyard and 3 spare batteries to get you up
and running for long range precision target shooting and hunting. The KILO2400ABS also features an
improved laser with tighter beam divergence and a molded, glass asphere for the transmitter channel
which provides consistent ranging performance across all temperatures. The advanced OLED display
provides for a tighter center aiming circle along with milling features and advanced information including
holdover, angle, wind direction, wind speed, target mode and shot angle. As with all SIG SAUER laser
rangefinders, the KILO2400 leverages SIG SAUER’s proprietary LightWave DSP engine featuring HyperScan
with RangeLock for reaching targets out to 2 miles at a 4 times per second scan rate.

Safety and Operation Procedures
The KILO2400ABS is classified as a Class 3R product. There are a few precautions that are important to
remember:
• Do not depress the RANGE button while aiming at the human eye or while looking into the transmitting
optics on the objective side
• Do not leave the KILO2400ABS within reach of small children
• Do not take the product apart or modify the product in any way to expose internal electronics that
might cause damage or electric shock
• Do not use any other power source other than a CR2 battery or equivalent.

SET UP
Installing the Battery
Remove the battery cap by turning the cap in a counter-clockwise direction. Insert (1) CR2 Primary
Lithium battery (+) terminal side first. The (-) terminal should be facing out. Place the cap onto the (-)
battery terminal and reinstall the battery cap by turning the cap in the clockwise direction.
CAUTION - Be careful to not cross-thread the cap.

Diopter Adjustment
The diopter or focus adjustment is located just inside of the
eyecup. The focus adjustment is used to bring the OLED display
into sharp focus along with the target image. The diopter
adjustment can turn clockwise or counter-clockwise depending
upon the user’s prescription.
Eyecup Adjustment
The eyecup adjustment allows the user to adjust the eye relief for
use with or without glasses. The eyecup rotates approximately
90 degrees counterclockwise allowing the user to adjust the eye
relief by approximately 6 mm.

GENERAL OPERATION
a. The KILO2400ABS is setup to work out of the box in its most simple
configuration. There are only two buttons located on the rangefinder:
RANGE and MODE. The RANGE button is used to turn on the rangefinder
and for ranging targets. The MODE button is for configuring the
rangefinder.
b. For users that do not require advanced ballistics and holdover
corrections, the unit is configured with only the minimal amount of
information to display: Center aiming circle, BEST target mode, Angle
Modified Range (AMR) mode, Y for yards as the unit of measure,
remaining battery status and Bluetooth status (ON or OFF).
c. To use the rangefinder, aim the unit at a target of interest using
the center circle to bracket your target. Press and release the RANGE
button to display the distance to the target. The display will remain
active for 30 seconds. If you press and hold the RANGE button down
the rangefinder will enter HyperScan providing range results every 250
milliseconds. Upon release of the RANGE button the last range will be
displayed for 30 seconds. You may notice that after initially turning on
the rangefinder only the center aiming circle and range information will
be displayed; this is done in order to reduce clutter in the field of view.

HyperScan MODE
While the KILO2400ABS supports single button push ranging operation, it is highly recommended that
you push and hold the RANGE button down to activate HyperScan mode. This mode allows you to scan
targets at 4x/second which significantly improves ranging performance at extreme distances. As the
ranging distances are updated very quickly in HyperScan mode, once you release the RANGE button the
last acquired distance will be displayed. When in HyperScan mode ranging distant targets, the display
may update between no result and a distant range - by using RangeLock technology the rangefinder will
report the last range result when the RANGE button is released.
Note - HyperScan is limited to 20 seconds of continuous ranging before turning off. You can restart SCAN
mode by releasing and pressing the range button again. This is done to ensure that the unit remains eye
safe in all conditions.

LUMATIC™ OLED DISPLAY
The KILO2400ABS has the most advanced display on the market. Our OLED display has the largest
dynamic range providing for high brightness in bright sunlight or snow conditions, yet will dim down to
near night vision levels at dusk and dawn. No other display offers this adaptive ability to prevent your
pupil from constricting in low light causing you to no longer be able to see your target. A small, ambient
light sensor (ALS) is located in the objective of the rangefinder and samples the ambient light condition
of the target image. The ALS samples and updates the brightness instantaneously to always provide the
right amount of contrast against your target image.

ADVANCED OPERATION (continued)
In each path you can configure the following common features:
1. Target Mode – BEST target will be used in most cases, however, if you are ranging through tall grass or
foliage LAST target mode will suppress close range results and provide the farthest range result.
2. Display Brightness (Lumatic OLED Display) – AUTO will be used in most cases which leverages the
ambient light sensor located in the objective of the rangefinder. This sensor samples the ambient light
conditions and automatically adjusts the display to the local environment. You can change this to 9
individual settings: LOW 1 – 3, MED 1-3 and HI 1-3. Note – if you accidentally leave the unit on Setting
LOW 1 you may not be able to see the display. If this occurs, go into a dark environment and change the
illumination setting.
3. Reticle Select – The center only aiming circle is the simplest aiming reticle which allows for an
uncluttered field of view. You can change the reticle by adding horizontal milling features or both
horizontal and vertical milling features in addition to the center aiming circle. The dots in the grid
represent 5 milliradian increments and the major hash marks represent 10 milliradian increments.
4. Unit of Measure – Y for yards and M for meters.
5. Bluetooth – Your Bluetooth transceiver can be turned ON or OFF. If you have no intention of syncing
custom profiles with the Sig Ballistic App you should turn Bluetooth OFF to reduce power consumption.
Bluetooth is on by default. Note – if you have paired the rangefinder with a smartphone and would like
to pair with a different smartphone you must cycle the Bluetooth transceiver OFF and then ON again to
