Note: The unit is self-protected against excessive levels of infrared radiation and it will cause the unit to automatically shut down. If that happens, slide the lens door closed, wait a minute and slide it open again.

Important: Always dock the imager in the docking station when not in use. By doing so, you will assure the batteries will be always fully charged when using the rechargeable battery pack. The image will not show thermal images or respond to controls while it is in the docking station.
