the doorphone in the following locations:
– Where most of the background is the sky.
– Where the background is a white wall, and direct sunlight will reflect off it.
– Where direct sunlight will shine on the doorphone.
RDo not place the doorphone in locations where echoing occurs, as this will cause the doorphone to
beep frequently.
RDust protection/water protection is IP54.
Only when installation work specified in this guide is properly performed and appropriate water
protection treatment is performed.
RMake sure the rear of the doorphone is not subject to water.
RDepending on the installation location, condensation may form on the doorphone’s lens cover. This
may cause images to become obscured. Condensation will dissipate as the temperature rises.
For the main monitor/extension monitor
RInstall the main monitor away from electronic appliances such as TVs, radios, personal computers, air
conditioners, boiler control panels with intercom, home security equipment, wireless devices, or digital
cordless phones.
RDo not install the main monitor/extension monitor in places where it will be affected by extremely high-
frequency radio waves (near broadcasting antennas etc.). This may cause the display to flicker or an
interrupting noise to occur.
RLeave at least 20 cm of space above, below, and to the left and right sides of the main monitor/
extension monitor. Do not install on a wall that is deeply recessed.
RDo not install the main monitor/extension monitor inside a wall.
RBe sure to install the main monitor/extension monitor more than 5 m away from the doorphone.
