• To install this product outdoors, be sure to waterproof the cables. The camera main body is waterproof, but the mount bracket and adapter box are not waterproof.

To install this product outdoors, use water- proof silicon rubber or the like to apply

waterproof treatment to the camera mount bracket, adapter box, cable access hole, screw holes, and screws.

To install this product on a wall, face the drain slit of the camera mount bracket downward. Do not block the drain slit. Do not waterproof the drain slit, either.

Be sure to use the supplied waterproof tape at the connection parts of the power cord and video output cable to apply waterproof treatment.

<How to wind the supplied waterproof tape>

Stretch the tape by approx. twice (see the illustration at right) and wind it around the cables. Insufficient tape stretch causes insuffi- cient waterproofing.
