or heat sinks if necessary.

1.4 Precautions

Read the manual
Read the manual carefully before using the camera.
Keep foreign matter outside of the camera
Do not open the casing. Touching internal components may damage them.
Be careful not to allow liquid, flammable, or metallic material inside the camera housing. If
operated with any foreign matter inside, the camera may fail or cause a fire.
Electromagnetic Fields
Do not operate the camera in the vicinity of strong electromagnetic fields. Avoid electrostatic
charging.
Transporting
Only transport the camera in its original packaging. Do not discard the packaging.
Cleaning
Avoid cleaning the surface of the CCD sensor if possible. If you must clean it, use a soft, lint free
cloth dampened with a small quantity of pure alcohol. Do not use methylated alcohol.
Because electrostatic discharge can damage the CCD sensor, you must use a cloth that will not
generate static during cleaning (cotton is a good choice).
To clean the surface of the camera housing, use a soft, dry cloth. To remove severe stains, use
a soft cloth dampened with a small quantity of neutral detergent, then wipe dry.
Do not use volatile solvents such as benzine and thinners; they can damage the surface finish.
