PRECAUTIONS

Read the manual
Please read the manual carefully before using the camera the first time.
Do not drop the camera
Handle the camera with care at all times, since it is a sensitive optical device. Do not drop the
camera and avoid mechanical shocks to the camera.
Keep foreign matter outside the camera
Do not spill liquids on the camera. The camera is not liquid or waterproof.
Do not drop any kind of objects or foreign material into the camera. Metallic objects might
cause short circuit and/or damage the optical assembly.
Cleaning
Keep the shade cap on the camera head when not used to avoid contaminating the prism.
The input surface of the prism is not shielded nor protected from the outside of the camera.
It is recommended that the camera is serviced by TVI Vision, if the front surface of the prism
is very dirty, since the surface area of the prism cannot be fully accessed from the front.
If there are small amounts of contaminants or dust on the prism surface, use a clean lint free
cotton swab or other non-abrasive medium dipped in acetone or pure alcohol to clean prism
surface. Shake excess solvent off before touching the surface of the prism to avoid streaking.
TVI Vision is not responsible for any scratches or damage inflicted by the customer to the
front surface of the prism.
To clean the exterior casing of the camera, use a soft, dry cloth. In case of severe stains use
a small amount of pure alcohol. Do not use isopropyl alcohol or acetone or other volatile sol-
vents such as benzene or thinners.
Do not open the camera
Do not open the camera. In doing so, the warranty of the camera will expire immediately.
Only authorised service personnel may open the camera.
Ventilation
Allow sufficient air circulation around the camera. If this condition is not met the camera might
shut down during operation, because it is designed to do so in order to prevent damage to
the optical assemblies. Further increase of the temperature may damage the camera.
