In 3-4 seconds the eyepiece field of view should begin to gleam with yellow-green light and red aiming reticle; - adjust the optimal contrast of aiming reticule by means of hand wheel 17; - if reticle is switched on but is extinct with the lit screen, the battery should be replaced with operable one; Warning: the reticle extinction indicates the discharge of battery.
Note: If zeroing range is different, the value of click changes proportionally, for example: - at range 50 m - 1.5 cm; - at range 200 m - 6.0 cm. Example: On the Fig.3 the mean point of impact is located above the aiming point by 15 cm and at the left by 20 cm. To shift the mean point of impact to target centre one should turn the vertical adjustment screw by 15/3 = 5 clicks down and the horizontal adjustment screw by 20/3 = 7 clicks to the right.
