Cautions on use
Do not subject the camera to impact.
• This camera is a precision machine. Take great care that you do not strike 
it against a hard object or let it fall.
Do not point directly at the sun.
• If direct sunlight strikes the lens, the camera could malfunction or a fire 
could occur.
No sand or dust!
• If sand or dust gets inside the camera or the AC adapter, it may cause 
damage and/or malfunction.
Heat on surface of product
• The surfaces of the camera and AC adapter will be slightly warm, but this 
does not indicate a fault.
Be careful of ambient temperature.
• If the temperature of this camera is too high or too low, normal image 
output may not be possible.
Be careful of moisture condensation.
• When you move the camera between places where the difference in 
temperatures is great condensation (vapor in air warmed or cooled to water 
droplets) could occur on the lens and/or inside the camera. If condensation 
occurs on the lens, wipe it off with a soft, dry cloth. Even if the external 
surface of camera has dried, condensation may remain inside. Therefore, 
turn the camera off and leave it in a dry place for at least 1–2 hours before 
using it again.
Do not use the camera near strong radio waves or magnetism.
• If the camera is used near strong radio waves or magnetism, such as a 
radio wave tower or electric appliances, noise may be present in the picture 
and the camera may not operate normally.  
At worst the camera could malfunction.
