PRECAUTIONS

In case of problem

Do not use the camera if smoke or a strange odor comes from the unit, or if it seems not to function correctly. Turn off the power immediately, and consult your dealer (or a

English

Sanyo Authorized Service Center).

Do not open or modify

Do not open the cabinet except when using the menu setting plate or during maintenance, as it may be dangerous and cause damage to the unit. For 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 substance get inside the camera. If used with a foreign object inside, it could cause a fire, short-circuits or damages.

Be careful when handling the unit

To prevent damages, 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, audio speakers the magnetic field they generate will distort the image.

Protect from humidity and dust

To prevent damages to the camera, do not install it where there is greasy smoke or steam, where the dampness 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, etc., or where it could be subject to direct sunlight.

Be careful when installing close to the ceiling, in a kitchen or boiler room, as the temperature may raise to high levels.

Cleaning

• Dirt can be removed from the cabinet by

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

• Do not use benzine, thinner or other

chemical product on the cabinet, as that may cause deformation and paint peeling. Before using a chemical cloth, make sure to read all accompanying instructions.
