CAUTION:
• The PVS-14/6015 is a precision optical instrument and must be handled carefully at all times
to prevent damage.
• To prevent damage, be especially careful when leaving the helmet mount in the flipped up
position or removing the helmet mount from the helmet.
• Do not scratch the external lens surfaces or touch them with your fingers.
• Do not wipe the demisting shield with lens paper while it is damp, or using wet lens paper, as
this can damage the coating.
• To protect the image intensifier, keep the lens cap securely fitted over the objective lens when
the monocular is not in use or when it is being operated in daylight conditions.
• Light from the IR illuminator is invisible to the unaided eye. However, it can be detected by
other night vision devices.
• If you use the rubber eyecups for a long period of time, you may suffer skin inflammation. If
you develop any symptoms, consult a doctor immediately.
NOTES:
To avoid physical injury and damage to the equipment, carefully read and understand the fol-
lowing safety precautions.
• The equipment requires some ambient light (moonlight, starlight, etc.) to operate.
• Performance of the device in nighttime conditions depends on the level of ambient light in
the environment. Please remember the following:
— The level of ambient light is reduced by the presence of clouds, shade, or objects that block
natural light (trees, buildings, etc.).
— The equipment is less effective when operated in shadows and other darkened areas.
— The equipment is less effective when operated in rain, fog, sleet, snow, dust or smoke.
— The equipment will not “see” through dense smoke.
• At operating temperatures below -20°C (-4°F), the use of an alkaline battery is not recom-
mended, as the battery life will be severely reduced. Under said conditions, lithium-iron disul-
fide 1.5V AA batteries or their equivalent should be used.
• The IR illuminator is intended for increased illumination, as needed, when viewing at a close
distance of up to 3m.
• For the purpose of returning defective components, retain all packaging materials.
