Important Safeguards

In addition to the careful attention devoted to quality standards in the manufacture process of your video

product, safety is a major factor in the design of every instrument. However, safety is your responsibility too.

This sheet lists important information that will help to assure your enjoyment and proper use of the video

product and accessory equipment. Please read them carefully before operating and using your video product.

Installation

1. Read and Follow Instructions - All the safety and

operating instructions should be read before the

video product is operated. Follow all operating

instructions.

2. Retain Instructions - The safety and operating

instructions should be retained for future reference.

3. Heed Warnings - Comply with all warnings on the

video product and in the operating instructions.

4. Polarization - Do not defeat the safety purpose of

the polarized or grounding-type plug.

A polarized plug has two blades with

one wider than the other.

A grounding type plug has two blades

and a third grounding prong.

The wide blade or the third prong are

provided for your safety.

If the provided plug does not fit into

your outlet, consult an electrician for

replacement of the obsolete outlet

5. .Power Sources - This video product should be

operated only from the type of power source

indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of

the type of power supply to your location, consult

your video dealer or local power company. For video

products intended to operate from battery power, or

other sources, refer to the operating instructions.

6. Overloading - Do not overload wall outlets of

extension cords as this can result in the risk of fire

or electric shock. Overloaded AC outlets, extension

cords, frayed power cords, damaged or cracked wire

insulation, and broken plugs are dangerous. They

may result in a shock or fire hazard. Periodically

examine the cord, and if its appearance indicates

damage or deteriorated insulation, have it replaced

by your service technician.

7. Power-Cord Protection - Power supply cords should

be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on

or pinched by items placed upon or against them,

paying particular attention to cords at plugs,

convenience receptacles, and the point where they

exit from the video product.

8. Ventilation - Slots and openings in the case are

provided for ventilation to ensure reliable operation

of the video product and to protect it from

overheating. These openings must not be blocked

or covered. The openings should never be blocked

by placing the video equipment on a bed, sofa, rug,

or other similar surface. This video product should

never be placed near or over a radiator or heat

a built-in installation such as a bookcase or rack

unless proper ventilation is provided or the video

product manufacturer’s instructions have been

followed.

9. Attachments - Do not use attachments unless

recommended by the video product manufacturer as

they may cause a hazard.

10. Water and Moisture - Do not use this video product

near water. For example, near a bath tub, wash bowl,

kitchen sink or laundry tub, in a wet basement, near

a swimming pool and the like.

Caution: Maintain electrical safety. Powerline

operated equipment or accessories connected to

this unit should bear the UL listing mark of CSA

certification mark on the accessory itself and should

not be modified so as to defeat the safety features.

This will help avoid any potential hazard from

electrical shock or fire. If in doubt, contact qualified

service personnel.

11. Accessories - Do not place this video equipment

on an unstable cart, stand, tripod, or table. The video

equipment may fall, causing serious

damage to the video product. Use

this video product only with a cart,

stand, tripod, bracket, or table

recommended by the

manufacturer or sold with the video

product. Any mounting of the product

should follow the manufacturer’s

instructions and use a mounting accessory

recommended by the manufacturer.

Important Safeguards

Service

13. Servicing - Do not attempt to service this video

equipment yourself as opening or removing covers

may expose you to dangerous voltage or other

hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service

personnel.

14. Conditions Requiring Service - Unplug this video

product from the wall outlet and refer servicing to

qualified service personnel under the following

conditions.

A. When the power supply cord or plug is

damaged.

B. If liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen

into the video product.

C. If the video product has been exposed to rain

or water.

D. If the video product does not operate normally

by following the operating instructions. Adjust

only those controls that are covered by the

operating instructions. Improper adjustment of

other controls may result in damage and will often

require extensive work by a qualified technician

to restore the video product to its normal

operation.

E. If the video product has been dropped or the

cabinet has been damaged.

F. When the video product exhibits a distinct

change in performance. This indicates a need for

service.

15. Replacement Parts - When replacement parts are

required, have the service technician verify that the

replacements used have the same safety

characteristics as the original parts. Use of

replacements specified by the video product

manufacturer can prevent fire, electric shock or other

hazards.

16. Safety Check - Upon completion of any service or

repairs to this video product, ask the service

technician to perform safety checks recommended

by the manufacturer to determine that the video

product is in safe operating condition.

17. Wall or Ceiling Mounting - Any cameras provided

with this system should be mounted to a wall or

ceiling only as instructed in this guide, using the

provided mounting brackets.

18. Heat - The product should be situated away from

heat sources such as radiators, heat registers,

stoves, or other products (including amplifiers) that

produce heat.

Use

19. Cleaning - Unplug the video product from the wall

outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners or

aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth for cleaning.

20. Product and Cart Combination - Video and cart

combination should be moved with care. Quick

stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may

cause the video product and car combination to

overturn.

21. Object and Liquid Entry - Never push objects for

any kind into this video product through openings as

they may touch dangerous voltage points or

“short-out” parts that could result in a fire or electric

shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the video

product.

22. Lightning - For added protection for this video

product during a lightning storm, or when it is left

unattended and unused for long periods of time,

unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the

antenna or cable system. This will prevent damage

to the video product due to lightning and power line

surges.
