CAUTIONS
1. Do not directly expose the thermal imager to high intensity
radiation sources such as the sun, carbon dioxide laser
and electric welding machine.
2. As the thermal imager combines precision optical
instruments and electrostatically sensitive electronic
devices, do not throw, beat or vibrate the thermal imager
and its accessories at will to avoid deformation of
structural members or installation dimension.
3. To clean non-optical surfaces of the thermal imager, do
not scrub with chemical solvent or diluent, and wipe the
shell with a piece of clean, soft and dry flannel.
4. As a layer of anti-reflection film is coated on the infrared
lens of the thermal imager, cleaning is required only when
there is an obvious dirty, scrubbing the lens frequently
may damage the coating of the lens.
5. After observation or when the target is not observed for
a long period of time after power-on, power the thermal
imager o in time to prolong its eective utilization time.
6. Do not disassemble the thermal imager by yourself.
Contact the manufacturer in case of failure. Otherwise,
we are not responsible for warranty repair.
