Caution: Binoculars are not intended for looking at the sun, or any 
other intense light source. Such viewing could damage the retina and 
cornea of your eyes—even to the point of causing blindness.
LENS CARE
Maintain the optical brilliance of the Diamondback binocular by 
keeping lens surfaces free of dirt, oils, and dust.
Protect lenses while out in the field
Make use of the provided eyepiece and objective lens covers 
to protect the lenses when not viewing. Then, store the 
Diamondback in its carry case between viewing sessions.
Keep lenses clean
In order to enjoy the best views through your Diamondback 
binocular, take time to regularly clean the exterior lenses: 
1. Remove any dust or grit from lenses before wiping. Use a can 
of pressurized air, soft camel hair brush, or an acrylic optical brush.
2. Clear lenses of smudges, fingerprints, or eyelash oil. Fog the 
lenses with your own breath, then use a non-abrasive lens cloth to 
clean the lenses.
Note: Use lens cleaning fluid 
and optical paper to clean 
lenses. Never use facial tissue, 
heavy cotton, or flannel clothing 
on lenses—these materials can 
scratch the surface of a lens.
