CAUTION:
• When the equipment is installed
in a cabinet or on a shelf,
make sure that it has sufficient
space on all sides to allow for
ventilation (10 cm or more on
both sides, on top and at the
rear).
• When discarding batteries,
environmental problems must
be considered, and the local
rules or laws governing the
disposal of these batteries must
be followed strictly.
• Do not point the lens directly
into the sun. This can cause
eye injuries, as well as lead to
the malfunctioning of internal
circuitry.
There is also a risk of fire or
electric shock.
• Do not use a tripod on unsteady
or unlevel surfaces. It could tip
over, causing serious damage to
the unit.
