PRECAUTIONS FOR INSTALLATION
Attach the drop-prevention wire as a way to prevent
the camera from dropping.
pWhen the unit is to be mounted onto a Panasonic
pan-tilt head, use the mounting screws and drop-
prevention wire that are supplied with the pan-tilt head.
pWhen the unit is to be mounted onto a surface other
than a pan-tilt head, provide your own drop-prevention
wire and camera mounting bracket. For details of the
parts to be provided, refer to page 12.
pAttach the drop-prevention wire to the camera mounting
screw hole (Inch screw).
The camera cannot be installed or used in the
following locations.
pOutdoor locations and locations where the camera may
be exposed to dripping, splashing or sprayed water
pLocations such as swimming pools where chemicals are
used
pLocations such as a kitchen where the high levels of
steam and oily vapors are present and locations with
flammable atmospheres or other unusual conditions
pLocations where radioactive rays, X-rays or strong radio
waves or magnetic fields are generated
pLocations where the temperature may be outside the
camera’s operating ambient temperature (–10 °C to
45 °C [14 °F to 113 °F]) range
pLocations near the air outlet of an air conditioner or near
a door where the camera will be exposed to incoming
outside air or other locations where the temperature is
subject to sudden change (since these locations may
cause the lens area to cloud over and/or condensation
to form)
