About Condensation (When the lens is fogged up)
Condensation occurs when there is a change in temperature or humidity, such as when the unit is
taken from outside or a cold room to a warm room. Please be careful, as it may cause the lens to
become soiled, moldy, or damaged.
When taking the unit to a place which has a different temperature, if the unit is accustomed to the
room temperature of the destination for about one hour, condensation can be prevented. (When the
difference in temperature is severe, place the unit in a plastic bag or the like, remove air from the
bag, and seal the bag.)
When condensation occurs, turn off this unit, remove the terminal cover (waterproof) and
glasscover, and leave this unit for approximately 2 hours. Once this unit adjusts to the ambient
temperature, the condensation will disappear naturally.
