Bushnell 6x24 Prime 1300 Laser Rangefinder (Black) - Manual (Page 2)

2
Thank you for purchasing your new Bushnell® Prime™ Laser Rangefi nder.
This manual will help you optimize your viewing experience by explaining how to utilize the rangefi nder’s features and how
to care for it. Read the instructions carefully before using your rangefi nder.
WARNING: As with any laser device, it is not recommended to directly view the emissions for long
periods of time with magnifi ed lenses.
INTRODUCTION
Your Bushnell® Prime™ is an ultra compact, premium laser rangefi nder with the latest Digital Technology, providing precise
range readings from 5-1700 yards/5-1554 meters (for model LP1700SBL. Max range is 1300 y/1189 m for model LP1300SBL).
Measuring 1.3 x 4.3 x 2.9 inches, the 6-ounce Prime™ delivers extremely fast target acquisition, with +/- 1 yard accuracy
to the maximum range. The Prime laser rangefi nder features Bushnell’s patented ARC™ (Angle Range Compensation with
Ballistics Intelligence), a new Ranging Engine for faster, more consistent response and readings, a Vivid LCD display with
higher light transmission and water resistant (IPX4) construction along with EXO™ Barrier Coating on the optics.
*Note: You will get both longer and shorter maximum distances depending on the refl ective properties of the particular
target and the environmental conditions at the time the distance of an object is being measured. The color, surface fi nish,
size and shape of the target all affect refl ectivity and range. The brighter the color, the longer the range. White is highly
refl ective, for example, and allows longer ranges than the color black, which is the least refl ective color. A shiny fi nish
provides more range than a dull one. A small target is more diffi cult to range than a larger target. The angle to the target also
has an effect. Shooting to a target at a 90 degree angle (where the target surface is perpendicular to the fl ight path of the
emitted energy pulses) provides good range while a steep angle on the other hand, provides limited ranging. In addition,
lighting conditions (e.g. the amount of sunlight) will affect the ranging capabilities of the unit. The less light (e.g. overcast
skies) the farther the unit’s maximum range will be. Conversely, very sunny days will decrease the unit’s maximum range.
HOW OUR DIGITAL TECHNOLOGY WORKS
The Prime laser rangefi nder emits invisible, eye safe, infrared energy pulses. The Prime rangefi nder’s microprocessor results
in instantaneous and accurate readings every time. Sophisticated digital technology instantaneously calculates distances by
measuring the time it takes for each pulse to travel from the rangefi nder, to the target, and back.
BATTERY ACTIVATION / BATTERY LIFE INDICATOR
Before first use: Remove the battery compartment cover by lifting the battery cover tab and
then rotating the cover counter-clockwise. Remove and discard the red plastic disc covering
the positive battery terminal, then replace the battery cover. NOTE: It is recommended that
the CR2 3-volt lithium battery be replaced at least once every 12 months. Insert it into the
compartment negative end first.
