1 Product Precautions
Do not give shock to the camera.
Do not haul or damage the camera cable.
Do not wrap the camera with any material while using the camera. This will cause the internal camera
temperature to increase.
When the camera moving or using the place that temperature difference is extreme, countermeasure for
dew condensation (heat removal / cold removal) is necessary.
While the camera is not using, keep the lens cap on the camera to prevent dust or contamination from getting
in the sensor or filter and scratching or damaging it.
Do not keep the camera under the following conditions.
・In wet, moist, high humidity or dusty place
・Under direct sunlight
・In extreme high or low temperature place
・Near an object that releases a strong magnetic or electric filed
・Place with strong vibrations
Apply the power that satisfies the specified in specifications for the camera.
The defective pixels may appear due to the sensor characteristics.
Use below recommend materials (or equivalent materials) to clean the surface of glass.
・Air dust: Non Freon air duster (NAKABAYASHI Co., LTD.)
・Alcohol: Propan-2-ol (SAN’EI KAKO Co., LTD.)
・Non-woven: nikowipe clean room (NKB)
Use a soft cloth to clean the camera.

(*1) When the internal temperature sensor on camera (value of 2BH command) exceeding +15 deg. C, defective pixels and
noise are appearing increasingly on image. We recommend using this camera under +37 deg. C environmental
temperature or housing temperature at temperature measuring point of camera is not exceeded +47 deg. C condition.
Please insure the camera is installed with appropriate heat dissipation to keep camera housing temperature
(top plate) is less than 69 deg. C when camera using ambient temperature is exceeded 60 deg. C.
If the camera has a mounted lens and a tripod with an aluminum plate, this could decrease camera housing
temperature for heat dissipation.
When attaching camera to lens and aluminum fixture/frame/plate, dissipating camera housing heat efficiently then
camera can be used without increase housing temperature.
When the internal temperature sensor on camera (value of 2BH command) shows less than 36 deg. C, camera
housing temperature (top plate) will be less than 69 deg. C.
Taking these steps will maintain the heat rating of the electronic components of the camera.
