Preface
Panasonic WV-CW374 is designed for installation on the wall, using a camera mounting arm or the
supplied adapter box.
■
Precautions
• Refer all work related to the installation of this product to qualified service personnel or
system installers.
• Do not operate the appliance beyond its specified temperature, humidity, or power
source ratings.
Use the camera at temperatures between –30 °C and +50 °C {between –22 °F and 122 °F}, and
humidity below 90 %. The input power source for this appliance is 12 V DC/24V AC 60 Hz for
WV-CW374.
When you install the camera in a low-temperature location and start operating it, it may take
time (around 30 minutes) for the inside of the camera to warm up. Cut power once then supply
power again.
• Screws to mount the camera is not supplied.
Prepare locally procured screws matching the material, structure, and total weight of mounting
place.
• Be sure to use a ceiling board having enough strength to support this camera.
WARNING: All work related to the installation of this product should be made by qualified service personnel or sys-
tem installers.
CAUTION: An ALL-POLE MAINS SWITCH with a contact separation of at least 3 mm {0.12"} in each pole shall be
incorporated in the electrical installation of the building.
■
Preparations
The camera can be mounted either of the following ways.
• Using the supplied adapter box.
• Fixing the camera mounting arm directly
Caution: When installing, the power cord is NOT to be exposed to outdoor conditions like frost and
sunlight.
Using the supplied adapter box
When you mount the camera on a flat wall with a cable access hole, or through exposed wirings,
you will use the supplied adapter box. For installation, refer to Installation of Camera and Adapter
Box.
Notes:
• Mounting screws are not supplied. Prepare locally procured screws matching the material,
structure, and total weight of mounting place.
• Screws to fix the camera mounting arm to the adapter box are supplied.
Fixing the supplied camera mounting arm directly
• You can fix the camera mounting arm to a junction box installed on the wall.
• You can fix the camera mounting arm directly to the wall with a cable access hole.

alert the user to the presence of
important operating and mainte-
nance (servicing) instructions in the
literature accompanying the appli-
ance.
The lightning flash with arrowhead
symbol, within an equilateral trian-

NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found
to comply with the limits for a Class A digital
device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference when the
equipment is operated in a commercial environ-
ment. This equipment generates, uses, and can
radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed
and used in accordance with the instruction manu-
al, may cause harmful interference to radio com-
munications.
Operation of this equipment in a residential area is
likely to cause harmful interference in which case
the user will be required to correct the interference
at his own expense.
FCC Caution: To assure continued compliance,
(example - use only shielded interface cables when
connecting to computer or peripheral devices). Any
changes or modifications not expressly approved
by the party responsible for compliance could void
the user’s authority to operate this equipment.
For U.S.A
Caution:
Before attempting to connect or operate this
product, please read the marking on the top.
