Safety Warnings
nThis product must not be used in locations exposed to the dangers of explosion.
nMake sure that you install this product as outlined in this document. A faulty install-
ation can damage the camera!
nWhen installing this product, make sure that you are only using genuine MOBOTIX
parts and MOBOTIX connection cables. Only install this product on suitable, solid
materials that provide for a sturdy installation of the fixing elements used.
Electrical installation: Electrical systems and equipment may only be installed, modified
and maintained by a qualified electrician or under the direction and supervision of a qual-
ified electrician in accordance with the applicable electrical guidelines. Make sure to prop-
erly set up all electrical connections.
Electrical surges: MOBOTIX cameras are protected against the effects of small electrical
surges by numerous measures. These measures, however, cannot prevent the camera from
being damaged when stronger electrical surges occur. Special care should be taken when
installing the camera outside of buildings to ensure proper protection against lightning,
since this also protects the building and the whole network infrastructure.
Never touch the lenses: Due to the high performance of the M73, the area of the image
sensor can get quite hot, especially when the ambient temperature is also high. This does
not affect the proper functioning of the camera in any way. For this reason, the product
must not be installed within the reach of persons.
Power off before opening the camera: Make sure the power supply to the camera is dis-
connected before opening the camera housing (e.g., when exchanging the SD card or con-
necting wires inside the housing).
