The manufacturer reserves the right to revise and improve its products. All specifications are therefore subject to change without notice.

PRECAUTIONS 1. Do not install the camera near electric or magnetic fields. Install the camera away from TV/radio transmitters, magnets, electric motors, transformers and audio speakers since the electromagnetic fields generated from these devices may distort the video image.

5. Never install the camera in areas exposed to water, oil or gas. Water, oil or gas may result in equipment failure, electric shock or, in extreme cases, fire.

6. Cleaning Do not touch the surface of the sensor directly with the hands. Use a damp soft cloth to remove any dirt from the camera body. Use lens tissue or a cotton tipped applicator and ethanol to clean the sensor and the camera lens. Please do not use complex solvents, corrosive or abrasive agents for cleaning.
