NIGHT VISION CHARACTERISTICS

MAINTENANCE

BLACK SPOTS

These are cosmetic blemishes in the image intensifier. They do not affect the performance

or reliability of a night vision device and a number of sizes are inherent in the manufacturing

process.

IMAGE INTENSIFIER LIFE

Night Vision Devices are designed to be robust. The image intensifier tube, however, does

not have an unlimited lifetime. The life of the image intensifier is dependent upon the

amount of use. Under normal operating conditions, it will provide reliable performance for

an extended period of time.

OPTICS

Always clean the optics with a suitable optical cleaning cloth. Do not use detergents or

excessive moisture to clean any part of the Night Vision Device.

BATTERY/BATTERY COMPARTMENT

Any Night Vision Device that is to be stored for a long or undetermined amount of time

must have the batteries removed.

MOISTURE

The Night Vision Device is water resistant. No warranties or guarantees apply to a Night

Vision Device that has been submerged in water. Take great care when using any night

vision in a wet environment as the image intensifier tube is sensitive to moisture.

SALT WATER

If the Night Vision Device is exposed to a salt water environment, wipe it off with a clean

cloth slightly dampened with fresh water and dry it thoroughly. Take special care of the

optics as noted above.
