When using the compass, always keep in mind the local variation between magnetic and true north die MP ;oh HOW TO USE THE RETICLE The vertical scale (reticle) visible through the left half of the binocular, above the compass display, allows you to calculate distance to an object if you know its height, or to calculate the height of an object if youknow its distance from you Each mark on the vertical scale has a value of 5 MIL (1 Mil is equivalent to an angle that can determine an object one meter in height at a distance of 1000 meters) Therefore, if a navigation chart gives the height of an object, by sighting on it and counting the number of MILs, you can determine how far away it is Here are the two formulas: To measure distance when the height is known: Object height (m) Scale Reading X 1000 m = Distance in meters To measure object height when the distance is known: Distance (m) x Scale Reading - Object height in meters 1000 SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPASS How to use the built-in compass light and reticle The BUSHNELL MARINE compass model comes with built-in LED compass illuminator for use at night and in low light conditions (Incidentally. the compass is built into the left tube of the binocular but the push button control for the light and the battery are located in the right tube_ This was done to minimize the chance that electrical interference might affect compass performance ) When the ambient light does not permit you to see the compass heading clearly, press the button atop the right tube. If the light is dim or does not come on, replace the batteries If the light does not operate after replacing the batteries, please contact the Bushnell dealer nearest you HOW TO CHANGE THE BATTERIES To change the battery, use a thin coin to remove the battery cover by turning it counter-clockwise. Remove the two batteries The batteries have a (+) on the front and a (-) on the back. Be sure to insert the new batteries with (+) signs in the same direction Replace the battery cover by turning it clockwise BATTERY EQUIVALENTS MANUFACTURER Toshiba, Maxell, Panasonic Varta Eveready Duracell Rayovac TYPE LR43 12GA 186 D188AB 186-1 IMPORTANT AFTER EXPOSURE TO THE TO SALT WATER OR SPRAY, FLUSH THE BINOCULARS THOROUGHLY WITH FRESH WATER AND WIPE DRY. AVOID EXTENDED EXPOSURE TO BRIGHT SUNLIGHT AND SEVERE TEMPERATURE FLUCTUATIONS. FOR EXAMPLE, IF THE BINOCULAR HAS BEEN USED UNDER VERY COLD CONDITIONS, BRINGING IT INTO A HEATED ENVIRONMENT COULD CAUSE CONDENSATION BUILD UP.
