CARSON® Compact Binoculars Congratulations on selecting your new Carson Binocular! In order to achieve optimum performance, please follow instructions for proper use and care. EYE ADJUSTMENTS: HOW TO ADJUST FOR DISTANCE BETWEEN THE EYES The distance between the eyes, interpupillary distance, varies from person to person. To achieve perfect alignment of lens to eye: 1. Hold binoculars in normal viewing position. 2. Rotate barrels closer or farther apart until you see a single circular field. Single Circular Field INDIVIDUALLY ESTABLISHING LEFT/RIGHT EYE FOCUS: INDEPENDENT RIGHT DIOPTER CENTRAL FOCUS WHEEL FOLD DOWN EYECUPS INDEPENDENT RIGHT DIOPTER TWIST-UP EYECUPS CENTRAL FOCUS WHEEL Most binoculars have a center focus wheel and an independent right diopter eyepiece to account for small differences in the strength of each eye. Please follow the steps below to focus properly: 1. Eyecups should be fully extended if you don't wear glasses. If you wear glasses, twist/roll down eyecups to bring your eyes closer to the binocular lens. 2. With right eye closed, rotate the central focusing kwheel until the image in the left eyepiece is sharp. 3. With left eye closed, rotate the independent right diopter eyepiece until the image is sharp. 4. Image should now be focused to your individual eye strength and will retain setting for future use. Note: If you still cannot focus, rotate adjustable right diopter to reset by lining up symbols (triangle, line, circle, etc.) on diopter eyepiece and barrel. Then repeat Focusing Steps 2 and 3. FOCUSING YOUR BINOCULARS: While viewing an image, adjust the center focus wheel for distance. 1
