f
thesensor will not be exposed to the laser beam.
6.Donotplacethecamera inextremelyhot or cold temperatures (the operatingtemperature
shouldbebetween‐10°C~+60°C,dusty or damp locations, and do not exposeittohigh
electromagneticradiation.
7.Toavoidheataccumulation,goodventilation is required for aproper operating environment.
8.Whileshipping,thecamerashouldbepacked in its original packing, or packingo
f
thesame

9.Regularpartreplacement: afewparts(e.g. electrolytic capacitor) o
f
the equipment shouldbe
replacedregularlyaccordingtotheiraverage life time. The average time variesbecauseo
f

differencesbetweenoperatingenvironment and usage history, so regular checkingis
recommendedforallusers.Pleasecontact with your dealer for more details.
