WV-Q122 (option).

•When this product and camera mount bracket are mounted on a ceiling or a wall, use the screws described in page 20. The screws that secure the product are not supplied. Prepare them according to the material and strength of the area where the prod- uct is to be installed.

•Do not mount the product on a plaster board or a wooden section because they are too weak. If the product is unavoidably mounted on such a section, the section shall be sufficiently reinforced.

Protection from lightning

When cables are used outdoors, there is a chance that they may be affected by lightning. In this case, install a lightning arrester just before where the cables connect to the camera.

Do not place this product in the following places:

•Locations where a chemical agent is used such as a swimming pool

•Locations subject to moisture or oil smoke such as a kitchen

•Locations that have a specific environment that is subject to an inflammable atmosphere or solvents

•Locations where a radiation, an X-ray, a strong radio wave or a strong magnetic field is generated

•Locations where corrosive gas is produced, locations where it may be damaged by briny air such as sea- shores

•Locations where the temperature is not within the specified range (☞ page 36)

•Locations subject to vibrations, such as on vehicles, marine vessels, or above product lines (This product is not designed for on-vehicle use.)

•Locations subject to condensation as the result of severe changes in temperature (In case of installing the product in such locations, the dome cover may become foggy or condensation may be caused on the cover.)

Screw tightening

•The screws and bolts must be tightened with an appropriate tightening torque according to the materi- al and strength of the installation area.

•Do not use an impact driver. Use of an impact driver may damage the screws or cause tightening exces- sively.

•When a screw is tightened, make the screw at a right angle to the surface. After tightening the screws or bolts, perform checks to ensure that the tightening is sufficient enough so that there is no movement or looseness.

Remove the Protection Cover from the dome cover after the installation is complete.

Make sure to remove this product if it will no longer be used.

Conduct the power distribution work to keep a distance of 1 m {3.28 feet} or more from the 120 V (for U.S. and Canada) or 220 V - 240 V (for Europe and other countries) power line. Or conduct the electric conduit work sepa- rately.

Radio disturbance

When this product is used near TV/radio antenna, strong electric field or magnetic field (near a motor, a transformer or a power line), images may be distorted and noise may be produced.
