CAUTION
1.
Handle this product with care.
To avoid failure, be careful not to give the device an impact or strong vibration.

Cautions on handling of the touch panel LCD monitor
•
Do not hit or press the surface of the monitor strongly. The surface of the monitor is glass; it may break and
injure you.
•
Use a stylus for touch panel operation. Do never use a ballpoint pen or other hard or sharp objects. Doing so
will make a scratch on the screen and cause malfunction. Use your finger if a stylus is not available. Do not let
your nail contact the screen if you do so.
•
Do not expose the touch panel monitor to direct sunlight or strong ultraviolet. Doing so may degrade its display
characteristics.
4.
Handling a DS cooled camera head
A DS cooled camera head has a built-in mechanism for cooling the image pickup device. This makes it easier to
run with condensation compared with other ordinary electric devices when exposed to a rapid temperature
change or left in a high-humidity environment for a long time.
Take special care about the environment when using the product for a long time. After a long period of its use,
leave it idle at least several hours before switching it on again.
5.
Do not orient the image pickup device to the sun or a high-power laser beam
Do not orient the photographing section of the DS camera head directly to the sun or a high-power laser beam.
An excessive exposure to the light may cause browning and burn-in of the image pickup device, leading to
malfunction.
6.
Cautions on installation, assembling, connection, and maintenance
•
When you do installation, assembling, connection, or cleaning, make sure that DS-L3 is switched off and the
power cord plug is pulled off from the AC socket in order to avoid electrification, fire, and other accidents.
•
In installation and assembling, be careful not to have your fingers or hands caught.
•
When you attach the DS camera head to a microscope or other optical instruments, make sure that the device
body and cables do not interfere with the moving part of the optical device.
7.
Attaching a commercially available arm or mount
You can remove the stand arm unit at the back of DS-L3 and use the attachment hole to attach DS-L3 to a
commercially available arm conforming to VESA 75 mm or to a stand or a mount conforming to UL1678.
Do not fix DS-L3 directly to a wall with the attachment hole at its back. Use an arm, stand, or mount whose
maximum sustainable weight is at least 1.4 kg, and set DS-L3 at least 10 cm away from the wall or other objects.
