 All installation and operation should conform to your local electrical safety codes.
 The power source shall conform to the requirement of the Safety Extra Low Voltage (SELV)

standard, and supply power with rated voltage which conforms to Limited power Source
requirement according IEC60950-1. Please note that the power supply requirement is
subject to the device label.

 Make sure the power supply is correct before operating the device.
 A readily accessible disconnect device shall be incorporated in the building installation wiring
 Prevent the power cable from being trampled or pressed, especially the plug, power socket

and the junction extruded from the device.

 We assume no liability or responsibility for all the fires or electrical shock caused by

improper handling or installation.

Environment

 Do not aim the device at strong light to focus, such as lamp light and sun light, otherwise it

might cause over brightness or light marks, which are not the device malfunction, and affect
the longevity of Charge Coupled Device (CCD) or Complementary Metal-Oxide
Semiconductor (CMOS).

 Do not place the device in a damp or dusty environment, extremely hot or cold temperatures,

or the locations with strong electromagnetic radiation or unstable lighting.

 Keep the camera away from water or other liquid to avoid damages to the internal

components.

 Keep the indoor device away from rain or damp to avoid fire or lightning.
 Keep sound ventilation to avoid heat accumulation.
 Transport, use and store the device within the range of allowed humidity and temperature.
 Heavy stress, violent vibration or water splash are not allowed during transportation, storage

and installation.

 Pack the device with standard factory packaging or the equivalent material when

 Do not directly touch the heat dissipation component of the device to avoid scald.
 Do not dismantle the device because there is no component that can be fixed by users

themselves. Otherwise, it might cause water leakage or bad image due to unprofessional
dismantling.

 Please contact after-sale service to replace desiccant when it becomes green. (The

desiccant is not provided by default)

 It is recommended to use the device together with lightning arrester to improve lightning

protection effect.

 It is recommended to get the grounding holes to be grounded to enhance the reliability of the

device.

 Do not directly touch the optic component CCD or CMOS. You can use the air blower to

blow away the dust or dirt on the lens surface. Please use a dry cloth wetted by alcohol to
wipe away the dust gently if necessary.

 Use the dry soft cloth to clean the device. If the dust is difficult to be removed, please wipe it

away with a clean cloth wetted slightly by the mild detergent, and then use the dry cloth to

cover because it is an optical device. If stained with dirt, use oil-free soft brush or air blower
to gently wipe it away. If stained with grease or fingerprint, use soft cloth to gently wipe the
water drop or oil and wait till it is dry, and then use oil-free cotton cloth or lens cleaning paper
soaked with alcohol or detergent to wipe from the lens center outward till it is clean.

 We are not liable for any problems caused by unauthorized modification or attempted repair.
 The dome cover is a kind of optical component, please do not touch or wipe the cover

surface during installation and application, it may stain dust, grease or fingerprint, you can
use absorbent cotton to dip some diethyl ether or use soft cloth to dip some water and then
wipe gently. You can also use air gun to remove the dust if the cover is stained with dust.

Warnings
