Care and cleaning. Monoculars require little maintenance but occasionally the outside surfaces of the
eyepieces and objective lenses will need cleaning. To avoid damaging these surfaces please read the
following carefully.
(i) Gently remove excess dirt and dust using compressed air or blower brush.
Caution: Hard and persistent rubbing of dirty surfaces can cause abrasive scratches on the surface of the
glass which may distort viewing.
(ii) Breathe on exposed glass surface and then wipe with an optical cleaning cloth in a circular motion
until the surface is clean again.
Do not attempt to dismantle the instrument as this will invalidate the warranty.
Cold weather. In cold weather the external lens surfaces may steam up when moving the instrument from
cooler air outside to warmer air inside. If this occurs, leave the instrument to stand for a few minutes until
any condensation evaporates.
WARNING Never under any circumstances use this monocular to view the Sun. Doing so will cause
serious damage to your eyes.
We hope you will get a great deal of pleasure from your new Opticron DBA monocular. If you have any
problems or damage it in any way our Service Department is on hand to help you.
