WARNING! Read and understand all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions
listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
• Prevent object and liquid entry. Never spill liquid of any kind on the video display
unit. Liquid increases the risk of electrical shock and damage to the product.
• The unit is not shock-resistant. Do not use as a hammer and avoid high impact
resultant from things such as dropping the unit from height.
• Do not immerse camera handle or LCD screen in water. Avoid moisture and store
product in a dry place. Such measures reduce the risk of electric shock and
damage. The lens and the tube are water resistant when the unit is fully
assembled, but the LCD screen and handle are not.
• Do not use the camera if condensation forms inside the lens. Let the water
evaporate before using again.
• Turn off the system if it is not in use.
• Attention should be given to the environmental aspects of battery disposal.
• Remove the batteries when cleaning the unit.

• When necessary, REPLACE ALL FOUR (4) BATTERIES in the unit with new ones,
not one (1) or two (2) batteries at a time.
• Use only the size and type of battery specified.
• Be sure to install the battery with the correct polarity as indicated in the battery
compartment.
• Properly dispose of batteries. Exposure to high temperatures can cause batteries to
explode so do not dispose of in a fire. Place tape over the terminals to prevent direct
contact with other objects.
• Some countries have regulations concerning battery disposal. Please follow all
applicable regulations.
