! Handle carefully
!!
Do not drop the equipment or allow it to be subject to strong impact or vibration, as such action may cause
malfunctions. Further, do not damage the connection cable, since this may cause wire breakage.
!
! Environmental operating conditions
!!
Do not use the product in locations where the ambient temperature or humidity exceeds the specifications.
Otherwise, image quality may be degraded or internal components may be adversely affected. In particular,
do not use the product in areas exposed to direct sunlight. Moreover, during shooting under high
temperatures, vertical stripes or white spots (noise) may be produced, depending on the subject or camera
conditions (such as increased gain). However, such phenomena are not malfunctions.
!
! Check a combination with the lens
!!
Depending on the lens and lighting you use, an image is reflected as a ghost in the imaging area. However,
this is not because of a fault of the camera.
In addition, depending on the lens you use, the performance of the camera may not be brought out fully due
to deterioration in resolution and brightness in the peripheral area, aberration and others.
Be sure to check a combination with the camera by using the lens and lightning you actually use.
When installing a lens in the camera, make sure carefully that it is not tilted.
In addition, use a mounting screw free from defects and dirt. Otherwise, the camera may be unable to be
removed.
!
! Do not shoot under intense light
!!
Avoid intense light such as spot lights on part of the screen because it may cause blooming or smears. If
intense light falls on the screen, vertical stripes may appear on the screen, but this is not a malfunction.
!
! Occurrence of moiré
!!
If you shoot thin stripe patterns, moiré patterns (interference fringes) may appear. This is not a malfunction.
!
! Occurrence of noise on the screen
!!
If an intense magnetic or electromagnetic field is generated near the camera or connection cable, noise may
be generated on the screen. If this occurs, move the camera or the cable.
Notes on using this product
!
! Handling of the protective cap
!!
If the camera is not in use, attach the lens cap to the camera to protect the image pickup surface.
!
! If the equipment is not to be used for a long duration
!!
Turn off power to the camera for safety.
!

damage or discolor the paint and indications.
If the image pickup surface becomes dusty, contaminated, or scratched, consult your sales representative.
!
! Disposal
!!
When disposing of the camera, it may be necessary to disassemble it into separate parts, in accordance with
the laws and regulations of your country and/or municipality concerning environmental contamination.
