Aqua-Vu none manual Fuse, Video Recording with the AQUA-VU DT, Caring for Your AQUA-VU DT

•Fasten the battery securely in its compartment, and minimize shock to the battery.

•Guard against overcharging. The 500 mA charger provided will not

overcharge the battery in most cases. Do not leave the charger connected for more than 24 hours. Do not use a charging system with more than a

2-amp output. High rates of charge can heat up and destroy a battery in a few hours.

•Avoid prolonged battery storage without charging. Batteries stored in a discharged state may initially appear to be damaged and will accept less current than normal. Usually the battery will accept increasing amounts of current, but may take longer than normal to reach a fully charged state. If there is no response the battery may have been discharged too long to recover. Freezing a discharged battery may permanently damage it.

•Always dispose of a battery in a legal and environmentally safe way.

THE FUSE

Between the "Camera In" and "Video out" ports is a "1 AMP" fuse compartment.

(A fuse is factory installed.) This fuse is designed to blow when the battery is connected backwards, or if a short occurs in the system. If the fuse is blown replace it with a standard 1 amp automotive fuse available at hardware and auto parts stores. To remove the fuse, push the cap in and rotate counter-clockwise.

VIDEO RECORDING WITH THE AQUA-VU DT

Your Aqua-Vu DT's "Video-Out" jack is for connecting your DT to a hand-held camcorder, or to a larger external monitor. The DT will work with any camcorder or any monitor that accepts the NTSC video signal (the North American standard) and has a "Video-In" jack. Use an RCA-style patch cord that comes with most camcorders (also available at most consumer electronics stores.)

For video recording, plug one end of the cord into the "Video-Out" jack on the DT; plug the other end into the "Video-In" jack on your camcorder. You should be able to watch your Aqua-Vu monitor and record at the same time.

CARING FOR YOUR AQUA-VU DT

Your DT requires minimal "common sense" maintenance.

1.The battery requires regular charging. (See battery charging instructions.) Always disconnect the DT red and black power leads before charging the battery. Never charge while the unit is connected.

2.Clean the monitor and camera lens periodically by using mild dish washing soap, warm water, and a very soft cloth. Do NOT use window cleaner or alcohol-based products, since they may cause permanent fogging.
