such as a swimming pool
• Locations subject to humidity, dust, steam
and oil smoke
• Locations in a specific environment where
a solvent or a flammable atmosphere
exists
• Locations where a radiation, an X-ray, a
strong radio wave or a strong magnetic
field is generated
• Locations where corrosive gas is pro-
duced, Locations where it may be dam-
aged by briny air such as seashores
• Locations where the temperature is not
within –10 °C to +50 °C {14 °F to 122 °F}.
• Locations subject to vibrations (This prod-
uct is not designed for on-vehicle use.)
• Locations subject to condensation as the
result of severe changes in temperature
Be sure to remove this product if it is not
in use.
Shielded (STP) LAN cables must be used

Before installation
• The camera mount bracket described on
page 23 shall be used to mount the cam-
era.
• When this camera and camera mount
bracket are mounted on a ceiling or a wall,
use the screws described on page 23. The
screws to be used are not provided.
Prepare the screws according to the mate-
rial, structure, strength and other factors of
the mounting area and the total weight of
objects to be mounted.
• Ensure that the mounting surface, anchor
and screws are sufficiently strong.
• Do not mount this product on a plaster
board or a wooden section because they
are too weak. If this product is unavoidably
mounted on such a section, the section
shall be sufficiently reinforced.
Screw tightening
• The screws and bolts must be tightened
with an appropriate tightening torque
according to the material and strength of
the installation area.
• Do not use an impact driver. Use of an
impact driver may damage the screws or
cause tightening excessively.
• When a screw is tightened, make the
screw at a right angle to the surface. After
tightening the screws or bolts, perform
visual check to ensure tightening is enough
and there is no backlash.
Fall prevention measures
When the external safety wire is connected,
select a connection point resulting in that noth-
ing will hit people after the mount bracket is
damaged. The wire length shall be adjusted to
remove slack.
