Beta Andromedae, Mirach, is a red giant 200 light years away. The colour is easily noticed with the naked eye, making Mirach relatively easy to locate, following the instructions found in alpha Andromedae.

Facing north, with binoculars place Mirach toward the lower left of your glasses. You will find mu Andromedae near the upper edge of your glasses, toward the north.

Now slowly sweep your glasses toward the North Pole until mu is at the opposite edge. Nu and 32 will be nearly centred: binoculars.

M31 is between nu And and the northwestern edge of your glasses.
