1. Do not install the camera near electric or magnetic fields.
Install the camera away from TVs, radio transmitters, magnets,
electric motors, transformers, and audio speakers as the magnetic
fields generated from these devices will distort the video image.
2. Do not install the camera in a high temperature environment.
Install camera away from stoves or other heat generating devices
as the high temperature could cause deformation, discoloration or
other damage to the camera. Install the camera where the
