SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Regarding the Product
Be sure to hold the plug and pull when you disconnect the cable.
Failure to do so may cause a fire 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 CMOS 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 semiconductor pixels are adapted in CMOS image sensor, image burn-in will not occur in
normal operation. When you shoot subjects with an excessive amount of light (e.g. sun, laser beam,
etc.) for a long time, pay attention to temperature rise inside the CMOS sensor.
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.
Laser beams may damage the CMOS image sensors. 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.
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 unspecified battery.
Wrong usage of batteries may cause liquid leak, explosion, and heat, and at worst injury or fire.
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 fiber 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 fiber cable supplies AC220V power from 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 fiber cable is removed or short-circuited, never
force to bend, twist, or damage the cable, and take great care when handling.
