SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
vi
HDK-97C 1303 VER1 (U)
Regarding the Product
Be sure to hold the plug and pull when you disconnect the cable.
Failure to do so may cause a
fi re or electric shock due to a broken cable.
Avoid moving the equipment suddenly from an extremely cold place to a warm place.
Condensation may occur in the image sensor or other parts.
Do not drop or insert a metal object such as a pin or a foreign object into the equipment.
Do not spread or spill water or other liquid on the equipment.
Do not subject the equipment to a strong shock or vibration.
Doing so may cause damage or malfunction of the equipment.
Since a CCD/CMOS is adopted as the image sensor in picture elements, no burning occurs in
ordinary operation. However, when shooting a subject which emits an excessive amount of light (such
as the sun) for long hours, take great care for temperature increase inside of the image sensor.
Laser beams may damage the image sensor. If you shoot a scene that includes a laser beam, be
careful not to let a laser beam become directed into the lens of the camera.
Before connecting a VTR or accessories, make sure that the camera and equipment to be connected
are powered off. Also, be sure to use dedicated cables.
Excessive sound pressure from the headset may cause a hearing loss.
Regarding the Power and the Lithium Battery
Use the product in compliance with the rating of the fuse within the product and that within the
Camera Control Unit (CCU). Otherwise, a fault can occur.
Do not use an unspeci fi ed battery.
Wrong usage of batteries may cause liquid leak, explosion, and heat, and at worst injury or fi re.
When changing or discarding a battery, please contact Ikegami's sales and service centers.
Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type. Dispose of used batteries according to
the instructions.
Regarding the Fiber Connector and the Fiber Optic Cable
Fiber optic cable connectors are quite similar to each other in shape. Before connecting fi ber optic
cables, thoroughly check male or female, the diameter, type and manufacturer of connectors.
If the ferrule is dirty, wipe the dirt off with cotton swabs soaked in alcohol.
The fi ber optic cable supplies AC220V power from the CCU to the camera.
Although safety measures are fully taken such as the safety circuit that stops the power supply
from the CCU within a short time after an optical
fi ber cable is removed or short-circuited, never
force to bend, twist, or damage the cable, and take great care when handling.
