extremely bright objects. Otherwise, blooming or smear
may be caused.

7. Do not use strong or abrasive detergents when

cleaning the camera or the camera control unit
body.

Use a dry cloth to clean the camera or the camera con-
trol unit when dirty.
In case the dirt is hard to remove, use a mild detergent
and wipe gently.

8. Clean the faceplate with care.

Do not clean the faceplate with strong or abrasive
detergents. Use lens tissue or a cotton tipped applica-
tor and ethanol.

9. Put the lens cap on the camera after using the

camera.

After using the camera, turn the power of the camera
control unit off, and put the lens cap on the camera
head.

10. Do not connect units other than the camera head to

the GP-US522CUA camera control unit.

Other connections may result in improper operation.

11. Do not operate the camera and the camera control

unit beyond the specified temperature, humidity, or
power source ratings.

Use the camera and the camera control unit under con-
ditions where temperature is between 0°C - +45°C
(32°F - 113°F), and humidity is below 90%. The input
power resource is 12 V DC.
