Power supply
Use a power supply device equipped with the ON-OFF switch for servicing. When the power cord of
the product is connected to the power supply device, the power will be supplied to the product.
Before cleaning the product, make sure that the power cable is not connected to the main power
supply.
Take notice of humidity.
Install this product when the humidity is low. If this product is installed during rainfall or at a high
humidity, the inside may be exposed to moisture and the dome cover may become foggy.
Mounting method for this product
This product is designed to be used as a pendant mount camera. If the product is mounted on a
desktop or at a slant, it may not work correctly and its lifetime may be shortened.
Do not place this product in the following places:
• Locations where a chemical agent is used such as a swimming pool
• Locations subject to moisture or oil smoke such as a kitchen
• Locations that have a specific environment that is subject to an inflammable atmosphere or sol-
vents
• Locations where radiation, x-ray, intense radio wave, or strong magnetism is produced
• Locations where corrosive gas is produced, locations where it may be damaged by briny air such
as seashores
• Locations where the temperature is not within the specified range (–40 °C to +50 °C {–40 °F to
122 °F})
• Locations subject to condensation as the result of severe changes in temperature
(In case of installing the product in such locations, the dome cover may become foggy or con-
densation may be caused on the cover.)

(This product is not designed for on-vehicle use.)
Check before installation
Compatibility of devices is restricted. Before installation, check the ratings and dimensions of the
devices to be used.
Contact your dealer for details.
Screw tightening
• 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 checks to ensure that the tightening is sufficient enough so that there is
no movement or looseness.
Protection against lightning
When cables are used outdoors, there is a chance that they may be affected by lightning. In this
case, install a lightning arrester just before where the cables connect to the camera.
Make sure to remove this product if it will no longer be used.
