It cannot be used outdoors. ● This camera has been designed exclusively to be hung from the ceiling.It may malfunction if it is placed on a surface or if it is tilted. ● Do not install or use the camera in the following places. • In a place exposed to rain or moisture. • In a place with vapor or oil soot, for example in a kitchen. • In a temperature outside the operating temperature range (-10°C to 50°C). • Near a source of radiation, X-rays, strong radio waves or magnetism. • In a place subject to vibration. • In a place with excessive dirt. ● If this camera and the cables connected to this camera are used where there are strong electromagnetic waves or where there is magnetism present, for example near a radio or TV transmitter, power transformer or an electric motor, the picture may produce noise and the colors may be affected. ● This camera incorporates an AGC circuit. As a result, when it is used under low light conditions, the camera sensitivity is automatically boosted and the picture may look uneven. This is not a malfunction however. ● The white balance setting when used under a fluorescent lamp should be ATW (Auto White). ● When this camera is used in the ATW mode, the recorded colors may be slightly different from the actual colors due to the operational principles of the auto-tracking white balance circuit. This is however not a malfunction. 6
