5.2 General Safety Instructions
WARNING
Operation of the Camera System in Case of Obvious Damage
Risk of electric shock and fire hazard caused by short circuit.
Do not use the system if electrical lines or housing are visibly damaged.
Operate the system using only the type of power source indicated in the manual.
Unplug the power cable by gripping the power plug, not the cable.
Do not operate the system in areas with humidity above operating levels or expose it to water or
moisture.
Do not get the system wet.
Do not lay cables over sharp edges (e.g. sheet metal, profile or other cut edges). Damaged
cables can cause electric shock, short circuit or fire.
Do not remove or deactivate any safety measures from the system (incl. warning stickers or paint
marked screws).
Repairs may only be carried out by authorized ARRI service partners.
WARNING
Falling System Parts
If the system is inadequately built up or assembled, it can fall down and cause serious in-
juries and damage to the system or property.
Installation and operation may only be carried out by trained personnel who are familiar with the
system. Observe accident prevention regulations.
Do not place the camera system on an unstable trolley or hand truck, stand, tripod, bracket, table
or any other unstable support device.
Always place the camera on dedicated support devices.
Secure the camera system and its accessories against falling and tipping over. Observe the
general and local safety regulations.
When using the camera system on camera cranes, a suitable safety rope must be used.
WARNING
Positioning the Camera System on an Inclined or Unsafe Plane
Risk of injury caused by the camera system tipping over.
Observe the accident prevention regulations.
Put the camera system on level and stable ground
Do not place the system on an unstable trolley or hand truck, stand, tripod, bracket, table or any
other unstable support device.
Always place the camera on dedicated support devices.
Use only accessories approved by ARRI. The use of accessories not approved by ARRI is at
your own risk. Please observe all relevant safety guidelines

Safety Instructions 18
WARNING
Overloading the Camera System by Persons or Objects
Risk of injury caused by the camera system tipping over.
Do not lean on the camera system.
Do not place any unauthorized objects on the camera system.
Do not hang any unauthorized objects on the camera system.
Use only accessories approved by ARRI. The use of accessories not approved by ARRI is at
your own risk. Please observe all relevant safety guidelines
WARNING
Changing the Lens Mount while the Camera is Powered
Risk of electric shock and permanent damage to the camera and lens mount.
Always switch off the camera and disconnect all power supplies before changing the lens mount.
CAUTION
Using the Camera or Camera Accessories in a Humid Environment and with Con-
densation
When moving the camera and the camera accessories from a cool to a warm location or
when the camera is used in a damp environment, condensation may form inside the cam-
era, on the sensor, and on internal or external electrical connections. Operating the cam-
era while condensation is present bears risk of electric shock and/or fire caused by a short
circuit.
Never operate the camera and camera accessories when condensation occurs.
After moving the camera and camera accessories from a cool to a warm environment, wait for
some time for the system to warm up.
To reduce the risk of condensation, find a warmer storage location.
CAUTION
Hot Surfaces on Camera Body and Camera Accessories
During extended operation, high data rates and/or operation at high ambient temperatures,
the camera's surface and the area around the fan outlet can get hot. Direct sunlight can re-
sult in camera housing temperatures above 60° C (140° F).
Never cover, obstruct or block the fan in- or outlets while the camera is powered.
Do not place the camera system near any heat sources during operation.
At ambient temperatures above 25° C (77° F), protect the camera and camera accessories from
direct sunlight.

Safety Instructions 19
CAUTION
Hot Surfaces on Recording Media
During extended operation, high data rates and/or operation at high ambient temperatures,
the recording media in the camera can get hot to the touch and can cause pain or even
burns if held for too long directly after removal.
Do not handle the recording media for longer than three seconds and remove it quickly but
carefully.
Consider to wear protective gloves when removing the recording media or allow it to cool down
beforehand.
Do not put any labels or adhesive tape on the recording media (especially the side facing the
camera body). The recording media must have full contact to the thermal surface to ensure
proper heat conduction.
CAUTION
Rotating Lens Motor
Risk of crushing fingers and capturing and unraveling long hair, jewelry and/or clothing.
Make sure that the lens motor is properly attached to the lens.
Do not touch the lens motor gears while they are moving.
Keep hair and loose clothing away from the motor gear teeth.
Keep cables connected to the camera away from the motor gear teeth.
CAUTION
Connected Cable on the Floor
Risk of injury caused by tripping, falling or slipping over connected cables.
Always properly secure cables connected to the camera and camera accessories.
Install cables in a way that they cannot be tripped over.
If necessary, use a cable duct or secure the cables with adhesive tape.
Disconnect the cables from the camera and camera accessories before moving.
CAUTION
Unhealthy Posture or Excessive Physical Exertion During Camera Operation
Using the camera in shoulder mode, on portable stabilizer systems, etc., as well carrying
for transport in general bears risk of permanent long term physical damage.
Ensure an ergonomic posture when operating and carrying the camera.
ADVICE
High Energy Light Sources
Permanent damage to the camera sensor and/or the viewfinder display.
Do not point the camera sensor into direct sunlight, very bright light sources or high energy light
sources (e.g. laser beams).
Do not point the viewfinder eyepiece into direct sunlight, very bright light sources or high energy
light sources (e.g. laser beams).

Safety Instructions 20
ADVICE
Open Lens Mount
When no lens or lens cap is attached to the camera, dirt and dust particles may enter the
camera and settle on the sensor cover glass. Particles on the sensor cover glass can later
be visible in the recordings made by the camera.
Place the protective cap on the lens mount, when no lens is attached to the camera
Contact ARRI Service to inspect the camera if undefined spots appear in the image.
ADVICE
Connection of Onboard Monitor
Damage to the SDI driver chip caused by power surge.
Always make sure to plug in the power cable first and then connect the BNC cable. As soon as
the power and BNC cables are connected, you can switch the camera or the accessories on or
off.
Always make sure to disconnect the BNC cable first and then disconnect the power cable.
Only use shielded power cables to power accessories that connect to the camera with a BNC
cable. When only the plus pin connects on a shielded power cable, the shield will act as the
power return and therefore not damage the SDI output.
