● Do not use these sensors under any circumstances in which the range of their ratings, environment conditions or other specifications are

exceeded. Using the sensors in any way which causes their specifications to be exceeded may generate abnormally high levels of heat,

emit smoke, etc., resulting in damage to the circuitry and possibly causing an accident.

● Before connecting a connector, check the pin layout by referring to the connector wiring diagram, specifications diagram, etc., and make

sure that the connector is connected properly. Take note that mistakes made in connection may cause unforeseen problems in operation,

generate abnormally high levels of heat, emit smoke, etc., resulting in damage to the circuitry.

● Do not use any motion sensor which has been disassembled or remodeled.

● Protection circuit recommended.

The possible failure mode is either open or short of the output transistor.

An ecess heat is the cause for short mode failure. For any important and serious application in terms of safety, add protection circuit or any

other protection method.
