SEA SPRAY, WATER, MUD AND SNOW

Ensure that the battery cap and the two adjustment caps are tightened before exposing the sight to sea spray, mud, snow or before immersing the sight in water - hand tighten only.

AIMPOINT® SIGHT LENS CLEANING

HOW TO CLEAN AND KEEP THE LENS IN GOOD CONDITION

The lenses shall never be cleaned with fingers, always use lens paper or cloth.

If no lens paper or cloth is available:

  • To clear away debris (sand, grass etc.): blow away the dirt.
  • To clean lenses: mist up the lenses or pour clean water on the lenses. Wipe them dry with a soft piece of cloth.
