MAINTENANCE Your Bushnell Elite riflescope, though amazingly tough, is a precision instrument that deserves reasonably cautious care. 1. When cleaning the lenses, first blow away any dry dirt and dust, or use a soft lens brush. Fingerprints and lubricants can be wiped off with lens tissue, or a soft clean cloth, moistened with lens cleaning fluid. WARNING: Unnecessary rubbing or use of a course cloth may cause permanent damage to the lens coatings. 2. All moving parts of the scope are permanently lubricated. Do not try to lubricate them. 3. No maintenance is needed on the scope's outer surface, except to occasionally wipe off dirt or fingerprints with a soft cloth. 4. Use lens covers whenever it is convenient. STORAGE Avoid storing the scope in hot places, such as the passenger compartment of a vehicle on a hot day. The high temperature could adversely affect the lubricants and sealants. A vehicle's trunk, a gun cabinet or a closet is preferable. Never leave the scope where direct sunlight can enter either the objective or the eyepiece lens. Damage may result from the concentration (burning glass effect) of the sun's rays. 12

MAINTENANCE
Your Bushnell Elite riflescope, though amazingly tough, is a precision instrument that deserves reasonably
cautious care.
1. When cleaning the lenses, first blow away any dry dirt and dust, or use a soft lens brush. Fingerprints
and lubricants can be wiped off with lens tissue, or a soft clean cloth, moistened with lens cleaning
fluid.
WARNING:
Unnecessary rubbing or use of a course cloth may cause permanent damage to the lens
coatings.
2. All moving parts of the scope are permanently lubricated. Do not try to lubricate them.
3. No maintenance is needed on the scope’s outer surface, except to occasionally wipe off dirt or
fingerprints with a soft cloth.
4. Use lens covers whenever it is convenient.
STORAGE
Avoid storing the scope in hot places, such as the passenger compartment of a vehicle on a hot day. The high
temperature could adversely affect the lubricants and sealants. A vehicle’s trunk, a gun cabinet or a closet is
preferable. Never leave the scope where direct sunlight can enter either the objective or the eyepiece lens.
Damage may result from the concentration (burning glass effect) of the sun’s rays.
