with this system, comply with the Specifications and Warranty conditions that the
manufacturers or venders present.
5. Keep the intercom wires at least 30 cm (12") away from AC 100-240 V lines. Noise

12. Refrain from using the color monitor station in sunlit areas.
13. At night, due to reduced lighting on the object, the monitor sees more noise and the
face becomes more difficult to see, but this is not malfunction.

sound may break up and be difficult to hear.

voice may not come through clearly. Communication will proceed smoothly if you
wait until the other person has finished before speaking.
17. At a gate or porch illuminated by a fluorescent lamp, the picture may vary, but this is
not a malfunction.
18. When outside temperature lowers sharply after rainfall, etc., the inside of the camera
may fog up slightly, causing a blurry picture, but this is not a malfunction. Normal

but this is not a malfunction.
