About the battery
This product consists of a camera section and
Battery Pack section. Do not leave the battery
in environments where it may be exposed to
excessive heat from sunlight or fire, such as on
the dashboard of a vehicle.
The capacity of the battery is reduced each
time it is used. In particular, recharging or using
the battery in high-temperature locations
increases deterioration.
Observe the following precautions when
replacing the battery.
•
Be sure to use the dedicated Battery Pack
(WV-BWC40B1/WV-BWC40B1E).
•
Check that the camera surfaces are not
wet before removing the battery.
•
The internal terminals are visible when the
battery is removed. Take care not to get
them wet.
•
If the internal terminals appear dirty when
the battery is removed, wipe them clean
with a dry cloth.
•
Take care not to drop the Battery Pack.
•
When installing the battery, take care that
foreign objects are not trapped in the ter-
minals.
•
When installing the battery, check that the
left and right battery hooks are fixed prop-
erly.
Do not touch the lens with your bare
hands.
A dirty lens causes deterioration of picture
quality. In case of adhesion any dirt or other
unwanted substances, please wipe it with a
lens cleaning paper.
When an error is detected, this product
will restart automatically.
This product will be inoperable for around 40
second after the restart just as when the power
is turned on.
Do not touch the bottom terminal of the
BWC.
Failure to observe this may cause poor con-
tact.
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 exam-
ple, 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 MOS sensors and is
caused by the relationship between the peri-
odic movements of the camera and the timing
that the image sensor reads images. This is not
a problem with the camera.
