Warranty precautions
To ensure your warranty remains in effect:
•
Do not open the camera housing.
•
Follow instructions described in this chapter.
•
Use only optical quality tissue/cloth if you must clean a lens or filter.
•
Use only optics cleaner (60% ethyl alcohol, 40% ether). Do not use aggressive
cleaners like benzine or spirit. Such cleaners may damage the surface.
•
Do not use compressed air which can push dust into camera and lens unless
you are trained to clean a camera using this method.
Allied Vision does not warranty against any physical damage to the sensor, filter,
protection glass, or lenses. Use utmost care when cleaning optical components.
