Warning:
This equipment generates and uses radio frequency energy and if
not installed and used properly, I.e., in strict accordance with the
instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. It has been tested and found to comply with the
limits for a Class A computing device pursuant to Subpart J of Part
15 of FCCRules, which are designed to provide reasonable
protection against such interference when operated in a commercial
environment.
For U.S.A.
Warning:
This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class A limits for radio
noise emissions from digital apparatus set out in the Radio
Interference Regulations of the Canadian Department of
Communications.
For Canada
WARNING:
TO PREVENT FIRE OR SHOCK HAZARD, DO NOT EXPOSE
THIS APPLIANCE TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.

Safety Precautions
Product Precautions
Handle the camera with care. Do not abuse the camera. Avoid striking or shaking it. Improper handling
or storage could damage the camera.
Do not pull or damage the camera cable.
During camera use, do not wrap he unit in any material. This will cause the internal temperature of the
unit to increase.
Do not expose the camera to moisture, or do not try to operate it in wet areas.
Do not operate the camera beyond its temperature, humidity and power source ratings.
While the camera is not being used, keep the lens or lens cap on the camera to prevent dust or
contamination from getting in the CCD or filter area and scratching or damaging this area.
Do not keep the camera under the following conditions:
In wet, moist, and high humidity areas
Under hot direct sunlight
In high temperature areas
Near an object that releases a strong magnetic or electric field
Areas with strong vibrations
Use a soft cloth to clean the camera. Use pressured air spray to clean the surface of the glass. DO not
scratch the surface of the glass.
