electromagnetic radiation.
7. To avoid heat accumulation, good ventilation is required for a proper operating environment.
8. While shipping, the camera should be packed in its original packing, or packing of the same
texture.
9. Regular part replacement: a few parts (e.g. electrolytic capacitor) of the equipment should be
replaced regularly according to their average life time. The average time varies because of
differences between operating environment and usage history, so regular checking is
recommended for all users. Please contact with your dealer for more details.
