  We describe the technique of spectropolarimetric observations allowing for
the measurements of the Stokes parameters in one of the observational modes of
the SCORPIO focal reducer of the 6-m BTA telescope of the SAO RAS. The
characteristics of the instrument in the spectropolarimetric mode of
observations are given. We present the algorithm of observational data
reduction. The capabilities of the SCORPIO spectropolarimetric mode are
demonstrated on the examples of observations of various astronomical objects.
