Keep in mind the following when plan­ning the installation.

• This system is designed for indoor

has an ambient temperature be­tween 14° and 113°F.

• If you plan to i nstall t he camer a in a
location that has conditi ons not rec­ommended in this manual, consult
with a professional installer and con­sider use of a s epa r ate ca mer a c ov ­er or housing.
