Battery

The Axis product uses a 3.0 V BR/CR2032 lithium battery as the power supply for its internal real­time clock (RTC). Under normal conditions this battery will last for a minimum of five years.

Low battery power affects the operation of the RTC, causing it to reset at every power-up. When
the battery needs replacing, a log message will appear in the product’s server report. For more
information about the server report, see the product’s setup pages or contact Axis support.

The battery should not be replaced unless required, but if the battery does need replacing, contact
Axis support at www.axis.com/techsup for assistance.

• Risk of explosion if the battery is incorrectly replaced.

• Replace only with an identical battery or a battery which is recommended by Axis.

• Dispose of used batteries according to local regulations or the battery manufacturer's instructions.

Dome Cover

• Be careful not to scratch, damage or leave fingerprints on the dome cover because this could
decrease image quality. If possible, keep the protective plastic on the dome cover until the
installation is complete.

• Do not clean a dome cover that looks clean to the eye and never polish the surface. Excessive
cleaning could damage the surface.

• For general cleaning of the dome cover it is recommended to use a non-abrasive, solvent-free neutral
soap or detergent mixed with pure water and a soft, clean cloth. Rinse well with pure lukewarm
water. Dry with a soft, clean cloth to prevent water spotting.

• Never use harsh detergents, gasoline, benzene or acetone etc and avoid cleaning the dome cover in
direct sunlight or at elevated temperatures.
