to revise and improve its products. All specifications are therefore subject to change without notice.

PRECAUTIONS

1. Do not install the camera near electric or magnetic fields.

Install the camera away from TV/radio transmitters, magnets, electric motors, transformers and audio
speakers since the electromagnetic fields generated from these devices may distort the video image.

2. Never disassemble the camera beyond the recommendations in this manual nor introduce
materials other than those recommended herein.

Improper disassembly or introduction of corrosive materials may result in equipment failure or other

damage.

3. Try and avoid facing the camera toward the sun.

circuits.

4. Keep the power cord away from water and other liquids and never touch the power cord with

wet hands.

Touching a wet power cord with hands or touching the power cord with wet hands may result in electric
shock.

5. Never install the camera in areas exposed to water, oil or gas.

Water, oil or gas may result in equipment failure, electric shock or, in extreme cases, fire.

6. Cleaning

Do not touch the surface of the sensor directly with the hands. Use a damp soft cloth to remove any
dirt from the camera body. Use lens tissue or a cotton tipped applicator and ethanol to clean the sensor
and the camera lens. Please do not use complex solvents, corrosive or abrasive agents for cleaning.

7. Do not operate the camera beyond the specified temperature, humidity or power source ratings.

Use the camera at temperatures within 0℃ ~ 45℃ (32℉~113℉) and humidity between 20~80%.
