SAFETY AND OPERATION

PRECAUTIONS

Warning

• Never look directly at the laser beam

or directly at the sun when using the

Nikon Laser 1000A S.

• Do not depress the POWER button

while looking into the optics from the

objective side.

• Do not aim at the eye.

• Do not operate the unit with other

additional optical elements, such as

lenses or binoculars. Using an optical

instrument together with the Nikon

Laser 1000A S increases the danger of

damaging the eyes.

• Do not disassemble the Nikon Laser

1000A S. The emitting laser may be

harmful to your health. A product

that has been disassembled is not

guaranteed by the manufacturer.

• If the Nikon Laser 1000A S’s body cover

is damaged, or if it emits a strange

sound due to dropping or for some

other cause, immediately remove the

battery and stop using.

Cautions

• When not using the Nikon Laser 1000A

S, do not push the POWER button.

• Do not leave the Nikon Laser 1000A S

within the reach of small children.

• Rain, water, sand and mud should be

removed from the rangefinder body

surface as soon as possible, using a

soft, clean, dry cloth.

• Although the Nikon Laser 1000A S is

waterproof, it is not designed for use

underwater.

• Do not swing the Nikon Laser 1000A

S by its strap. It may hit someone and

cause injury.

• Do not leave the Nikon Laser 1000A

S in an unstable place, as it may fall

and cause injury, or damage the

equipment.

• Do not look through the Nikon Laser

1000A S while walking. You may walk

into something and get hurt.

• Do not leave the Nikon Laser 1000A S

in a car on a hot or sunny day, or near

heat-generating equipment. This may

damage or negatively affect it.

• Do not leave the Nikon Laser 1000A S

in direct sunlight. Ultraviolet rays and

excessive heat may negatively affect

or even damage the unit.

• When the Nikon Laser 1000A S

is exposed to sudden changes in

temperature, water condensation may

occur on lens surfaces. Do not use the

product until the condensation has

evaporated.

• Do not use alcohol for cleaning the

main body.

• Do not leave the polyethylene bag

used for packaging within the reach of

small children.

• Be careful that small children do not

inadvertently swallow the eyecup.

If it does happen, consult a doctor

immediately.

Main body

• Clean the body surface with a soft,

clean cloth and a dry cloth. Do not

use benzene, thinner, or other organic

agents because they may cause

discolouration or rubber

degeneration.

Storage

• Water condensation or mould may

occur on the lens surface because of

high humidity. Therefore, store the

Nikon Laser 1000A S in a cool, dry

place.

After use on a rainy day or at night,

thoroughly dry it at room

temperature, then store in a cool, dry

place.

• If you use the rubber eyecup for a

long period of time, you may suffer

skin inflammation. If you develop

any symptoms, consult a doctor

immediately.

• When carrying the Nikon Laser

1000A S, store it in the soft case.

• If your Nikon Laser 1000A S should

fail to operate correctly, discontinue

use immediately and consult the

Troubleshooting Table. If you are

unable to fix the problem, contact

your local dealer for instructions on

where to send it for repair.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Lenses

• When removing dust on the lens

surface, use a soft oil-free brush.

• When removing stains or smudges

like fingerprints from the lens

surface, wipe the lenses very gently

with a soft clean cotton cloth or

quality oil-free lens tissue.

Use a small quantity of pure alcohol

(not denatured) to wipe stubborn

smudges. Do not use velvet cloth or

ordinary tissue, as it may scratch the

lens surface. Once the cloth has

been used for cleaning the body, it

should not be used again for the

lens surface.
