Meade spotting scopes are ideal for high-magnification, high-  
resolution observation of terrestrial subjects. Explore the  
subtleties of a bird’s feather structure from 50 yards or use  
the Spotting Scope for casual astronomical observations.

Never use a Meade Spotting Scope to look at the Sun!  
Looking at or near the Sun will cause instant and  
irreversible damage to your eye. Eye damage is  
often painless, so there is no warning to the  
observer that damage has occurred until it is too  
late. Do not point the spotting scope or its viewfinder at or  
near the Sun. Do not look through the spotting scope as it is  
moving. Children should always have adult supervision while  
observing.

CAUTION: Do not use scented or lotioned tissues or  
damage could result to the optics.  
Terrestrial Observation  
When viewing land objects, you will be observing through heat waves  
on the earth surface. You may have noticed these heat waves while  
driving down a highway during the summer. Heat waves cause a loss  
of image quality.  
Your spotting scope is water resistant:That is, it is designed  
to be used by the sportsperson, boater or casual user in an  
environment in which exposure to water, such as rain, mist,  
splashing and so forth, might be a possibility. It is intended to  
be resistant to accidental exposure to water, but it is not  
designed for intentional submersion or extended use in water.  
If your spotting scope is intentionally immersed in water for any  
significant length of time, you risk voiding the warranty in  
doing so.  
If heat waves interfere with your viewing, try focusing at low power to  
see a steadier, higher-quality image. Observe in early morning hours,  
before the earth has built up too much internal heat.  
Cleaning and Maintenance  
Your spotting scope is a precision optical instrument designed for a  
lifetime of rewarding viewing. It will rarely, if ever, require servicing or  
maintenance. Follow these guidelines to keep your spotting scope in  
the best condition:  
Also note that although your spotting scope may be used near  
a water environment, water on the lens will cause images to be  
distorted. Wipe off water from the entire device with a soft cloth  
when you leave the water environment.  
Avoid cleaning the spotting scope’s lenses. A little dust on the  
front surface of the spotting scope’s lens will not cause loss of  
image quality.  
Meade Consumer Solutions  
If you have a question concerning your spotting scope, call Meade  
Instruments Consumer Solutions Department at 1-800-626-3233.  
Consumer Solutions hours are from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Pacific  
Time, Monday through Friday. Write or call the Meade Consumer  
Solutions Department first before returning the spotting scope  
to the factory, giving full particulars as to the nature of the problem,  
as well as your name, address, and daytime telephone number. The  
great majority of servicing issues can be resolved by telephone,  
avoiding return of the spotting scope to the factory.  
When absolutely necessary, dust on the front lens should be  
removed with very gentle strokes of a camel hair brush or  
blown off with an ear syringe (available at most pharmacies).  
Fingerprints and organic materials on the front lens may be  
removed with a solution of 3 parts distilled water to 1 part  
isopropyl alcohol. You may also add 1 drop of biodegradable  
dishwashing soap per pint of solution. Use soft, white facial  
tissues and make short, gentle strokes. Change tissues often.
