Handling the camera

•Read and understand all instructions before using.

•Do not operate the camera if the USB cable is damaged or if the camera has been dropped or damaged. A qualified service technician must examine the camera before it can be used again.

•Position the cord so that it will not be tripped over, pulled, or come in contact with hot surfaces.

•Always unplug the camera from the computer before cleaning or servicing.

•Do not use cameras next to food or beverages. Cameras have been tested and approved for use in chemistry labs. However, be very careful not to spill liquid or dry chemicals, or solvents on the camera.

•Do not place cameras closer than 6' to TVs, radios, motors, transformers, or magnetic fields.

•Avoid touching the lens. To clear any dust, blow pressurized air onto the lens. For accidental smears or smudges, wipe carefully with a lens cleaning cloth.

•Clean exterior of camera by wiping with a clean, damp cloth; do not use any abrasive chemicals.
