 Do not use the system in a closed cabinet or other locations where heat may 

build up. Doing so may cause the system to overheat and may lead to fire, 

injury or malfunction.

 If the system’s internal temperature becomes elevated, the power indicator 

will flash alternately in red and green. In this case, turn off the system  

(

 page 21) and leave it unused for a while. After the system cools down, 

move it to a location with good ventilation, and then resume use.

 Do not place the system in an area subject to excessive dust or cigarette 

smoke. Dust build-up or cigarette smoke residue on the internal 

components (such as the lens) may cause the system to malfunction.

 Do not move or change the position of the system while the power indicator 

is lit solid green or flashing green. The vibration that occurs as a result of 

moving the system may cause data loss or corruption, or damage to the 

system.
