SAFETY STATEMENT
• Read and follow all instructions.
• Heed all warnings.
• Only use the attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
• All services must be provided by the manufacturer.
WARNING:
• When used in total darkness, the light from the infrared (IR)
illuminator is invisible to the unaided eye. However, the light can be
detected by Night Vision Devices (NVD).
• To reduce the risk of detection by an NVD, avoid prolonged activation
of the IR illuminator.
• The IR light is more easily detected by an NVD when used in smoke,
fog and rain. Avoid prolonged activation of the IR illuminator in these
conditions.
CAUTION:
• Do not scratch the external lens surfaces.
• Use only the supplied battery, and do not install any other types.
• Keep the lithium batteries well away from flames or extreme heat or
combustible materials. If handled or recharged incorrectly, lithium ion
batteries can cause fires, explosions, property damage, injuries, and
death.
• Keep the batteries and charger away from water or liquids of
any kind. Exposure to water may cause shock hazards and fatal
electrocution.
• Do not leave lithium ion rechargeable batteries and chargers
unattended while recharging.
• Do not operate the charger on wood, carpet, fabric, or any other soft
or flammable surfaces.
• Do not attempt to recharge disposable lithium batteries. Do not use
any unprotected lithium ion rechargeable batteries. Never recharge
lithium ion batteries in any chargers other than those designed for
the specific battery types being used.
