Handling

Care must be taken when you clean the clear dome cover. Scratches and dust will ruin the image quality of your camera.  Do not use strong or abrasive detergents when cleaning the camera body.  Use a dry cloth to clean the camera when it is dirty. In case the dirt is hard to remove, use a mild detergent and wipe the camera gently.

Installation and Storage

Avoid installing in humid or dusty places.

Avoid installing in places where radiation is present.

Avoid installing in places where there are strong magnetic fields and electric signals.

Avoid installing in places where the camera would be subject to strong vibrations.

Never face the camera toward the sun.  Do not aim at bright objects. Whether the camera is in use or not, never aim it at the sun or other extremely bright objects. Otherwise the camera may be smeared and damaged.

Cleaning

If the video image becomes blurry or smudged in areas, it may be because the lens cover requires cleaning.

To clean a lens cover:

  • Use hand soap or a non-abrasive detergent to wash off dirt or fingerprints.

To clean a dome cover:

  • Use hand soap or a non-abrasive detergent to wash off dirt or fingerprints.
  • Use a microfiber cloth or non-abrasive fabric to dry the dome bubble.
    • Important: Failure to use the recommended cleaning materials may result in a damaged or scratched lens cover. A damaged lens cover may negatively impact image quality and cause unwanted IR light reflecting into the lens.

To clean the camera body:

  • Use a dry or lightly dampened cloth to clean the camera body.
