IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Read prior to activation
You have just purchased a complicated electronic device. To operate it
properly, please read this manual carefully. Here are some common Precautions
that must be noted.
• NEVER expose the opened objective lens of an active unit in daylight.
(Note: 1st generation units will still remain active for a few minutes after
switching the unit off). At daytime objective lens must be covered by caps.
There is a tiny hole in the cap to provide enough light for day time
operation. It is allowed to turn on the unit at daytime, but the lenses must be
covered by caps.
• NEVER aim active unit at intense light sources (i.e. lights, headlamps,
campfires, the moon, etc.)
• NEVER reverse the polarity of a battery
•
NEVER disassemble the unit
