1. Your Bushnell Match Pro binocular will provide years of trouble-free service if it receives the normal care you would give any fine optical instrument.
2. Avoid sharp impacts. Set the binocular down gently on hard surfaces.
3. Tug on the strap after attaching it, ensuring it is securely fastened to the binocular before placing it around your neck.
4. Store your binocular in a cool, dry place whenever possible.

1. First, blow or brush away any dust or debris on the lens (using “canned air” or a soft lens brush). Excessive contamination, such as muddy water spots, should first be flushed with low-flow water from a cup or bottle.
2. To remove dust or fingerprints, use a clean microfiber cloth. First, breathe onto the lens to be cleaned to apply a light coating of moisture. Then, starting at the middle of the lens, apply the cloth and gently rub with a circular motion moving outwards. Use of a coarse cloth (including paper towels) or unnecessary rubbing may scratch the lens surface and eventually cause permanent damage.
3. For a more thorough cleaning, photographic lens tissue and photographic lens cleaning fluid may be used. Always apply the fluid to the cleaning cloth – never directly on the lens.
4. Never use household window cleaning liquids to prevent potential damage to the optical coatings on the binocular’s lens surfaces. Likewise, avoid using facial tissue or clothing that may have fibers that can be abrasive and hold oils or dirt.

Note: If using in the rain, resist the urge to wipe the lens, as keeping microfiber cloths clean while hands are dirty is difficult. A blow-out bulb or simply focusing through the droplets is often a better strategy. Also, it is unnecessary to keep the lenses spotless at all times. Thin films of dust or other small amounts of contaminants will not significantly degrade optical performance.
