General precautions
WARNING
Do not disassemble or modify the MD 9930 Thermal camera.
Do not point the Thermal camera (with or without the lens cover) at intensive energy
sources, for example devices that emit laser radiation or the sun. It can affect the
accuracy of the camera or damage the sensor.
Do not use the Thermal camera at ambient temperatures higher than +50°C or lower
than -15°C. Operation outside the specified ambient temperature range can cause
damage to the Thermal camera.
Clean the case with a damp cloth and a weak soap solution. Do not use abrasives,
isopropyl alcohol, or solvents to clean the case or lens/screen.
Special precaution should be taken when cleaning the infrared lens. Do not clean the
infrared lens too vigorously. It can damage the anti-reflective coating.
Avoid condensation
When taking the Thermal camera from colder to warmer environment, condensation
may appear. Power off the Thermal camera and wait until it warms up and dries,
before operation, to protect the camera.
Storage
When not using, store the Thermal camera in a cool and dry place. If storing
complete with battery, the charge will slowly leak and can lead to exhausting of the
battery.
Battery precautions
Only use the intended equipment to charge or discharge the battery.
If you do not use the intended equipment, you can decrease the performance or the
life-time of the battery and a different than intended current can run to the battery.
This can cause the battery to become hot, or cause an explosion and injury to
persons.
