Congratulations on the purchase of your new Bushnell Elite binocular. This precision instrument combines the finest
optical materials, craftsmanship, and technology. In addition to Bushnell’s exclusive Rainguard® hydrophobic lens
coating, the new Elite features XTR Coating Technology. XTR is a system of lens and prism coatings that achieve the
highest possible light transmission and color fidelity. The new Elite chassis is constructed with magnesium for reduced
weight (up to 20% lighter than other premium quality binoculars) without compromising strength.
This manual will help you optimize performance by explaining how you can adjust the binocular to your eyes, and
how to care for this instrument. Read the instructions carefully before using your binocular.
EYE ADJUSTMENTS (Fig. 1)
How to Adjust for Distance Between Your Eyes
The distance between the eyes, called
“interpupillary distance,” varies from person
to person. To achieve perfect alignment of lens
to eyes, follow these simple steps.
1. Hold your binocular in the normal
viewing position.
2. Grasp each barrel firmly. Move the
barrels closer together or further apart
until you see a single circular field.
Always re-set your binocular to this
position before using it.
