General safety precautions and safety instructions
Safety instructions
Before operating the appliance, please read this manual carefully and retain it for further reference.
Before cleaning the appliance, it has to be switched off and unplugged from the power outlet. Wipe the
appliance with a soft damp cloth.
Do not use harsh cleansers or aerosols for cleaning. The type label may not be replaced.
Do not use attachments unless recommended by the manufacturer as they may affect the functionality of the
appliance and result in the risk of fire, electric shock or injury.
Never install the appliance in areas exposed to water or other liquids.
The appliance has to be installed in a safe and stable location which is able to carry the weight of the
appliance. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the appliance to fall causing
serious injury to persons and damage to objects.
Openings in the appliance, if any, are provided for ventilation to ensure reliable operation of the appliance
and to protect if from overheating. These openings must not be covered or blocked. Please make sure that
the appliance does not overheat.
The appliance should only be operated from the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If you
are not sure of the type of power supplied at the installation location, please contact your local dealer.
An appliance which is powered through a polarized plug (a plug with one blade wider than the other) will fit
into the power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet,
try reversing the plug. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.
If the appliance is powered through a grounding-type plug, the plug will only fit into a grounding-type power
outlet. This is a safety feature. If your outlet does not have the grounding plug receptacle, contact your local
electrician.
Route power cords and cables in a manner to protect them from damage by being walked on or pinched by
items places upon or against them.
For protection of the appliance during a lightning storm or when it is left unattended and unused for a longer
period, unplug the appliance from the wall outlet. Disconnect any antennas or cable systems that may be
connected to the appliance. This will prevent damage to the appliance due to lightning or power-line surges.
Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.
Never insert items into the openings of the appliance. They may touch parts under electric current which may
cause an electric shock.
Never pour any liquids over the appliance.
In case of any operating interruption or a complete operating failure please switch off the appliance and
disconnect it from the wall outlet. Never attempt to service or repair the appliance yourself, as opening or
removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified
service personnel.
When replacement parts are required, be sure that the service technician uses replacements parts specified
by the manufacturer or that have the same characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions
may result in fire, electric shock or other hazards.
Upon completion of any service or repairs to the appliance, ask the service technician to perform safety
checks to verify that the appliance is in proper operating condition.
The appliance must only be installed by qualified service personnel and has to comply with local
specifications and regulations.
Never point the camera at an object with a high degree of luminance. Bright vertical or horizontal lines can
result in a distortion (outshine) of the entire image on the monitor. This artifact is not an error but a
particularity of semiconductor CCDs when they are directly exposed to a powerful light source.
At the installation site, the camera has to be adjusted to the given light conditions (see OSD).
Please respect the local legal regulations on waste if you need to dispose of discarded appliances.
This symbol means that electrical appliances need to be disposed of properly and not simply with
unsorted household refuse. Please respect local regulations on waste disposal.
For cameras equipped with IR LEDs:
Please make sure to always keep a distance of > 1m to avoid damages to your health. Never look
directly into the IR-LEDs
– this may cause eye damages!
