This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and if
■
not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause inter-
ference to radio communications. It has been tested and found to comply with the
limits for a Class A computing device pursuant to Subpart J of Part 15 of FCC Rules,
which are designed to provide reasonable protection against such interference
when operated in a commercial environment. Operation of this equipment in a
residential area is likely to cause interference in which case the user at his own

the interference.
An infrared camera is a precision instrument and uses a very sensitive IR detector.
■
Pointing the camera towards highly intensive energy sources – such as devices
emitting laser radiation, or reflections from such devices – may affect the accuracy
of the camera readings, or even harm – or irreparably damage – the detector. Note
that this sensitivity is also present when the camera is switched off and the lens
cap is mounted on the lens.
Each camera from FLIR Systems is calibrated prior to shipping. It is advisable that
■
the camera is sent in for calibration once a year.
For protective reasons, the LCD (where applicable) will be switched off if the detector
■
temperature exceeds +60 °C (+149 °F) and the camera will be switched off if the
detector temperature exceeds +68 °C (+154.4 °F).
The camera requires a warm-up time of 5 minutes before accurate measurements
■
(where applicable) can be expected.
In certain outdoor conditions, the sun can enter the eyepiece and cause damage
■
to the LCD. Use an eyepiece protector when you expect to be using the camera
for extended periods of time in outdoor sunlit environments.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by FLIR Systems voids the user's
■
