fire prevention regulations and other related regulations in your local region.
• Please use the power adapter, which is provided by normal company. The power consumption
cannot be less than the required value.
• Do not connect several devices to one power adapter as adapter overload may cause over-heat
or fire hazard.
• Do not drop the device or subject it to physical shock, and do not expose it to high
electromagnetism radiation. Avoid the device installation on vibrations surface or places
subject to shock (ignorance can cause equipment damage).
• Do not place the device in extremely hot (refer to the specification of the device for the
detailed operating temperature), cold, dusty or damp locations, and do not expose it to high
electromagnetic radiation.
• The device cover for indoor use should be kept from rain and moisture.
• Exposing the device to direct sun light, low ventilation or heat source such as heater or radiator
is forbidden (ignorance can cause fire danger).
• Do not aim the device at the sun or extra bright places. A blooming or smear may occur

same time.
• For long-term storage of the battery, make sure you fully charge it every half year, to ensure the
battery quality. Otherwise, you may damage the battery.
NOTES:
The detector spectral band provides better visibility through smoke, dust, rain, smog, etc.
Infrared radiation does not travel through glass. As a result, the monocular does not detect objects
if they are behind glass windows or other barriers.
