PRECAUTIONS

In case of problem

Do not use the camera if smoke or strange odors come from the unit, or if it seems not to function correctly. Disconnect the power cord immediately, and consult your dealer or a Sanyo Authorized Service Center.

Do not open or modify

Do not open the cabinet, as it may be dangerous and cause damage to the unit. For internal settings and repairs, consult your dealer or a Sanyo Authorized Service Center.

Do not put objects inside the unit

Make sure that no metal objects or flammable substances get inside the camera. If used with a foreign object inside, it could cause fire, short-circuits or damage. If water or liquid gets inside the camera, disconnect the power cord immediately, and consult your dealer or a Sanyo Authorized Service Center. Be careful to protect the camera from rain, sea water, etc.

Be careful when handling the unit

To prevent damage, do not drop the camera or subject it to strong shock or vibration.

Install away from electric or magnetic fields

If installed close to a TV, radio transmitter, magnet, electric motor, transformer, or audio speakers, the magnetic field they generate will distort the image.

Protect from humidity and dust

To prevent damage to the camera, do not install it where there is greasy smoke or steam, where humidity may get too high, or where there is a lot of dust.

Protect from high temperatures

Do not install close to stoves, or other heat generating devices, such as spotlights, or where it could be subject to direct sunlight, as that could cause deformation, discoloration or other damage. Be careful when installing close to the ceiling, in a kitchen or boiler room, as the temperature may rise to high levels. Install where the temperature range will stay between –10°C (14°F) and 50°C (122°F). (no condensation)

Cleaning

Dirt can be removed from the cabinet by wiping it with a soft cloth.

To remove stains, use a soft cloth moistened with a soft detergent solution and wrung dry, then dry by wiping with a soft dry cloth.

Do not use benzine, thinner or other chemical products on the

cabinet, as they may cause deformation and paint peeling. Before using a chemical cloth, make sure to read all accompanying instructions. Make sure that no plastic or rubber material comes in contact with the cabinet for extended periods, as that may cause damage or paint peeling.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Before sending the camera out for repair, check the items below. If the problem persists after checking these items, consult your dealer or a Sanyo Authorized Service Center.

If no image appears

Are the power and voltage normal? Are all the signal connecting cales correctly connected? Is there adequate illumination? Has the lens cap been removed? Is the lens type (DC or VIDEO) correctly selected?

Depending on the type of lens, the A. I. LENS switch must be set accordingly.

Has the iris of the lens inside the camera been adjusted correctly

(with the lens iris dial)?

If the image is unclear

Is the monitor adjusted correctly? Is the flange-back position correctly set? Is the lens in focus? Is the lens dirty?

Dirt or fingerprints on the lens can adversely affect the image. Gently wipe any dirt or fingerprints off the lens with a soft cloth or lens cleaning paper and cleaning fluid (commercially available).

SERVICE

The camera is a precision instrument. Handle it carefully and always follow the safety precautions. If the camera requires service, never try to repair it yourself or open the casing. For servicing, maintenance, or repairs, consult your dealer or a Sanyo Authorized Service Center.
