OPERATIOn In nIgHTTIME COnDITIOnS
CAUTIOn:
Avoid exposing the sight to bright light sources. Bright light emitted by fires, automobile head-
lights, lanterns, projectors, etc. will damage your Orion.
1) Visually estimate the illuminance level in the viewing area. Operation of the device with the objec-
tive lens cap removed is safe only when the illuminance level is less than 1 lux (at an illuminance
level of 1 lux, you will barely be able to read a newspaper, even after your eyes have adapted to the
dim light or darkness).
