WARNING

Never look at the Sun while using your binocular. Looking at the Sun can cause permanent eye damage.

Adjusting thE intErpupillAry distAncE

The interpupillary distance, or the distance between the pupils,

varies from person to person. The binocular must be correctly

aligned (adjusted) to the distance between your pupils to achieve a

single, clear image. To adjust this distance, lift the binocular up to

your eyes (using both hands) and look through them at an object in

the distance. Move the two barrels (halves) of the binocular closer

together or further apart until you see a single, clear image (Fig. 2).

Check that the interpupillary distance is set correctly every time you

use your binocular.

sEtting thE dioptEr / Focusing

To ensure a crisp, sharp image, the binocular’s focusing system must

be set to compensate for any differences in your eyesight. This is

achieved by setting the diopter (located on the right eyepiece)

before use. To set the binocular to your eyesight follow the

instructions below.

1. View an object in the distance through the binocular.

2. Cover the right objective lens with your hand or the objective

lens cap.

3. Rotate the focus wheel until the image viewed with your left eye

is clear and sharp.

4. Cover the left objective lens with your hand or objective lens cap.

5. Viewing the same object, adjust the diopter ring until the image

viewed with your right eye is clear and sharp.

6. Your binocular is now adjusted to your eyes and focusing on any object can now be achieved by simply

turning the focus wheel.

Tip: Eyeglasses worn for nearsightedness should be worn when using binoculars as you may not be able to

obtain focus at inﬁnity without them.

EyEcup AdjustmEnt

The Granite features twist-up eyecups to accommodate both

eyeglass and non-eyeglass wearers. If you do not wear eyeglasses,

twist the eyecups counterclockwise until they reach the up position.

If you wear eyeglasses, make sure that the eyecups are in the down

position to obtain the maximum ﬁeld of view. The eyecups can be

set at positions between fully up and down which may suit some

users better.

tripod AdAptAbility

The Granite binoculars feature built-in threads that allow the binocular

to be attached to a tripod using a binocular tripod adapter. These

threads can be accessed by unscrewing the logo plate found on the

front of the hinge (Fig. 5). To attach the binocular to a tripod, thread

the adapter into the binocular and attach the other end of the adapter

to a photographic tripod. Mounting the binocular on a tripod allows

for added stability and comfort during prolonged viewing.

WAtErprooF / FogprooF

The Granite series binoculars are waterproof and ﬁlled with dry nitrogen gas to prevent the housing from

fogging internally.

cArE And storAgE

Your Celestron binocular will provide you years of dependable service if it is cared for and stored properly.

1. Protect the binocular from impact and do not force any of the moving parts beyond their limits.

2. Protect the optics of your binocular by putting on all lens caps when not in use.

3. Store your binocular in a cool, dry place whenever possible.

4. When storing for an extended period of time, place the binocular in a plastic bag or airtight container

with a desiccant.

5. Do not leave the binocular in a car on a hot/sunny day or near anything that generates heat as this may

cause damage.

6. Clean any dust, dirt or water that may get on the binocular or inside moving parts as soon as possible

to prevent any unforeseen damage.

clEAning

Proper cleaning of the lenses is essential to maintaining the optical integrity of your binocular. Dirty lenses

diminish the amount of light transmitted through the binocular and your overall viewing experience.

1. Remove any dust on the lenses with a soft lens brush or can of pressurized air.

2. Remove any ﬁngerprints, stains or smudges from the lens surface with a soft, clean lens cloth or lens tissue

by rubbing in a circular motion. Start in the middle of the lens and work your way to the edges. Breathe

lightly on the lens to provide moisture if needed.

3. For a more thorough cleaning we recommend the use of a lens/optics cleaning kit available at most photo

or optical shops. Follow the directions supplied with the cleaning kit for best results.

Nous vous remercions d’avoir acheté les jumelles Granite de Celestron. Nous espérons que cette paire de

jumelles vous donnera des années de plaisir et de loyaux services. Veuillez lire attentivement les instructions

avant d’utiliser vos jumelles pour vous assurer d’une utilisation appropriée.

AVERTISSEMENT

Ne jamais regarder le soleil pendant l’utilisation de vos jumelles. Regarder vers le soleil peut causer des

lésions oculaires permanentes.

rÉglAgE dE l’ÉcArt intErpupillAirE

L’écart interpupillaire, ou la distance entre les pupilles, varie d’une

personne à l’autre. Les jumelles doivent être correctement alignées

(ajusté) à la distance entre vos pupilles aﬁn de créer une seule image

claire. Pour régler cette distance, soulevez les jumelles jusqu’à vos

yeux (en utilisant les deux mains) et regardez à travers eux un objet

distant. Déplacez les deux barillets (moitiés) des jumelles le plus

près possible ou éloigné jusqu’à ce que vous voyiez une seule

image claire (Fig. 2). Vériﬁez que l’écart interpupillaire soit déﬁni

correctement chaque fois que vous utilisez vos jumelles.

rÉglAgE du dioptrE/FocAlisAtion

Aﬁn d’assurer une image nette, le système de focalisation de jumelles

doit être réglé pour compenser les différences éventuelles de votre

vision. Ceci est réalisé en réglant le dioptre (situé sur l’oculaire droit)

avant utilisation. Pour régler les jumelles à votre vision, suivez les

instructions ci-dessous.

1. Visualisez un objet distant à travers les jumelles.

2. Couvrez la lentille droite avec votre main ou le capuchon

d’objectif.

3. Tournez la molette de focalisation jusqu’à ce que l’image avec

votre œil gauche soit claire et nette.

4. Couvrez la lentille gauche avec votre main ou le capuchon

d’objectif.

5. Visualisez le même objet, ajustez la bague de réglage dioptrique

jusqu’à ce que l’image avec votre œil droit soit claire et nette.

6. Les jumelles sont maintenant réglé pour vos yeux et la focalisation de n’importe quel objet peut

maintenant être obtenue en tournant simplement la molette de focalisation.

Astuce: Les lunettes de vision pour la myopie devraient être portées

lors de l’utilisation de jumelles puisque vous ne pourrez peut-être

pas être en mesure d’obtenir la mise au point à l’inﬁni sans celles-ci.

rÉglAgE dEs ŒillEtons

Le Granite dispose d’œilletons pour accommoder à la fois les

porteurs de lunettes et ceux qui n’en portent pas. Si vous ne

portez pas de lunettes, tournez les œilletons à gauche jusqu’à ce

qu’ils atteignent la position relevée. Si vous portez des lunettes,

s’assurer que les œilletons sont en bas aﬁn d’obtenir un champ

de vision maximum. Les œilletons peuvent être réglés dans des

positions entre complètement relevées et complètement abaissées

qui peuvent mieux convenir à certains utilisateurs.

AdAptAbilitÉ du trÉpiEd

Les jumelles Granite disposent de ﬁletages intégrés qui permettent

aux jumelles d’être ﬁxées sur un trépied à l’aide d’un adaptateur de

trépied de jumelles. Ces ﬁletages sont accessibles en dévissant la

plaque de logo située à l’avant de la charnière (Fig. 5). Pour ﬁxer les

jumelles sur un trépied, vissez l’adaptateur dans les jumelles et ﬁxez

l’autre extrémité de l’adaptateur sur un trépied photographique. Fixer

les jumelles sur un trépied permet une meilleure stabilité et plus de

confort pendant un visionnement prolongé.
