To keep on using with stable performance
Do not use this product in hot and humid
conditions for a long time. Failure to observe this
causes component degradation resulting in life
shortening of this product. Do not expose this
product to direct heat sources such as a heater.
When installing over oceans or in coastal
streets
• Periodically inspect the camera when
installing it in coastal areas or areas that are
sprayed with snow-melting agent. (Replace
parts as necessary.)
• When installing this product in coastal areas
and area that are sprayed with snowmelting
agent that are not exposed to rainwater,
periodically clean by rinsing to remove
adhered salt.
Usage such as switching the power ON/OFF
frequently could lead to failure of the camera.
Handle this product with care.
Do not drop this product, nor apply shock or
vibration to the product. Failure to observe this
may cause trouble.
Do not subject front portion to strong impact.
Doing so may cause damage or immersion.
Do not directly touch the lens surface and
front panel directly with your bare hands.
A dirty front panel or lens causes deterioration of
picture quality.
When an error is detected, this product will
restart automatically.
This product will be inoperable for around
2 minutes after the restart just as when the power
is turned on.
About the automatic status detection
function
When this product malfunctions due to
exogenous noise, etc. for 30 seconds or more,
the product will automatically restart and will return
to normal state. When the product is restart,
initialization will be carried out as when the power
of the product is turned on. When the product
repeatedly resets, exogenous noise level around
the product may be high and that may cause
malfunction. Contact your dealer for instructions.
Periodically images on the screen appear to
be distorted
When the camera is installed in a location where it
is subject to small vibrations (for example, when it
is installed near devices that vibrate), images may
appear distorted and stretched lengthways. This
phenomenon is a characteristic of image pickup
devices that use CMOS sensors and is caused by
the relationship between the periodic movements
of the camera and the timing that the image
sensor reads images. This is not a problem with
the camera. To reduce the possibility of this
phenomenon occurring, install the camera in a
secure location.
About the ventilation opening
• Because humidity is retained internally in the
camera, the camera has a ventilation opening
and contains moisture absorption gel.
• Depending on conditions such as
temperature, humidity or the climate,
condensation may form and it may take time
to dehumidify.
• Do not block the surface of the ventilation
opening.
