Notes on Power Supply

•  Only use the dedicated AC Adapter (sold separately) for AC power.

•  Do not set any heavy objects on the power cable (or the LAN cable for a PoE power 

supply).

•  Do not pull, forcibly bend, scratch, or modify the power cable (or the LAN cable for a 

PoE power supply).

• Do not cover or wrap the AC adapter (sold separately) with cloth or blankets.

Failure to do so may result in fire or electric shock.

 

For installation or inspection of this camera, consult the dealer where you purchased 

the product.

 

•  This installation should be made by a qualified service person and should conform to 

all local codes. 

•  When installing, make sure the surface is capable of withstanding the total weight of the 

camera and accessories, and sufficiently reinforce if necessary.

•  Be sure to use installation screws designed for the type of surface the camera is to be 

installed. 

•  Periodically check the parts and screws for rust and loosening, in order to prevent 

injuries and equipment damage due to falling items.

•  Do not install in unstable places, places subject to significant vibration or impact, or 

places subject to salt damage or corrosive gas.

•  Be sure to attach the safety wire when installing the camera.

Failure to do so may result in the camera falling or other accidents.

•  Do not touch the edges of metal parts with bare hands.

•  Be careful not to get your fingers caught when installing.

Failure to do so may result in injuries.

•  Do not turn the camera rotator by hand.

•  Do not install on an unstable surface. Also, make sure the camera is installed ±5°or less 

horizontal.

•  After turning off the power, do not turn the power on again for at least five seconds.

•  Take measures to remove static electricity before performing any procedures.

•  If there is condensation, please wait to power on, until the condensation dissipates.

Failure to do so may result in malfunction.

•  Take care not to damage wiring or piping.

Failure to do so may result in damage to peripheral items.

 Important

•  We recommend the installation of a lightning arrester (a surge protection device) as a measure against 

failures caused by lightning strikes. Refer to our website for details.

 

•  If you discover defective conditions such as smoke, strange sounds, heat or strange 

odors, immediately stop using the camera and contact your nearest dealer.

Fire or electric shock may result from continued use of the product.
