• Do not rub the edges of metal parts with your hand.

Failure to observe this may cause injury.

• Make sure that the installation area is strong enough to hold the total weight of the camera
assembly before installation.

• The camera and the ceiling mount bracket should be fixed using the provided fixing
screws, and make sure that the both of them are fixed firmly.

• When the ceiling mount bracket is not necessary anymore, remove from the ceiling.

• Avoid installing in the following locations.

• Locations where it may get wet from rain or water splash (not only outdoor)

• Locations where a chemical agent is used such as a swimming pool

• Locations subject to steam and oil smoke such as a kitchen

• Locations where radiation or x-ray emissions are produced

• Locations where it may be damaged by briny air such as seashores

• Locations where the temperature is not within the ambient temperature of the camera in
use and this product

• Locations subject to vibrations (This product is not designed for on-vehicle use.)

• Locations where the temperature may rapidly change such as the peripheral areas of
the air outlets of air conditioners or doors facing outside. (In case of installing the cam­era in such locations, the dome cover may become foggy or condensation may be
caused on the cover.)

• The screws and bolts must be tightened with an appropriate tightening torque according to
the material and strength of the installation area. After tightening the screws or bolts, per­form visual check to ensure tightening is enough and there is no backlash.
