Operation and Daily Maintenance

• Do not touch the heat dissipation component of the device to avoid scald.
• Do not open or dismantle the device; there are no components that a user can fix or replace. Opening the unit may cause water leakage or expose components to direct light. Contact the manufacturer or a qualified service representative to service the device or to replace a component, including the desiccant. (Not all models are provided with the desiccant).
• It is recommended to use the device together with lightning arrester to improve lightning protection effect.

• Do not touch the CCD or the CMOS optic sensor. Use a dry cloth dampened with alcohol and gently wipe away any dust on the lens.
• You can clean the device body with soft dry cloth, and for stubborn stains, use the cloth with mild detergent. To avoid possible damage on device body coating which could cause performance decrease, do not use volatile solvent such as alcohol, benzene, diluent and so on to clean the device body, nor can strong, abrasive detergent be used.
• Dome cover is an optical component. Do not touch or wipe the cover with your hands directly during installation or operation.
• For removing dust, grease or fingerprints, wipe gently with moistened oil-free cotton with diethyl or moisten soft cloth. You can also remove dust with an air blower.

WARNING

• Strengthen the protection of network, device data and personal information by adopting measures which include but not limited to using strong password, changing password regularly, updating firmware to the latest version, and isolating computer network. For some device with old firmware versions, the ONVIF password will not be modified automatically along with the modification of the system password, and you need to upgrade the firmware or manually update the ONVIF password.
• Use standard components or accessories provided by manufacturer and make sure that the device is installed and maintained by professional engineers.
• The surface of the image sensor should not be exposed to laser beam radiation.
