PRECAUTIONS

■ In case of problem
Do not use the camera if smoke or a strange odor comes from the 
unit, or if it seems not to function correctly. Disconnect the power 
cord immediately, and consult your dealer or a Sanyo Authorized 
Service Center.

■ Do not open or modify
Do not open the cabinet, as it may be dangerous and cause damage 
to the unit. For internal settings and repairs, consult your dealer or a 
Sanyo Authorized Service Center.

■ Do not put objects inside the unit
Make sure that no metal objects or flammable substance get inside 
the camera. If used with a foreign object inside, it could cause a fire, 
short-circuits or damages. If water or a liquid gets inside the camera, 
disconnect the power cord immediately, and consult your dealer or 
a Sanyo Authorized Service Center. Be careful to protect the 
camera from rain,  sea water, etc.

■ Be careful when handling the unit
To prevent damages, do not drop the camera or subject it to strong 
shock or vibration.

■ Install away from electric or magnetic fields
If installed close to a TV, radio transmitter, magnet, electric motor, 
transformer, audio speakers the magnetic field they generate will 
distort the image.

■ Protect from humidity and dust
To prevent damages to the camera, do not install it where there is 
greasy smoke or steam, where the dampness may get too high, or 
where there is a lot of dust.

■ Protect from high temperatures
Do not install close to stoves, or other heat generating devices, such 
as spotlights, etc., or where it could be subject to direct sunlight, as 
that could cause deformation, discoloration or other damages. 
Be careful when installing close to the ceiling, in a kitchen or boiler 
room, as the temperature may raise to high levels. Install where the 
temperature range will stay between –10

°C (14°F) and 50°C 

(122

°F). (no condensation)

■ Cleaning
• Dirt can be removed from the cabinet by wiping it with a soft cloth. 

To remove stains, wipe with a soft cloth moistened with a soft 
detergent solution and wrung dry, then wipe dry with dry soft cloth.

• Do not use benzine, thinner or other chemical product on the 

cabinet, as that may cause deformation and paint peeling. Before 
using a chemical cloth, make sure to read all accompanying 
instructions. Make sure that no plastic or rubber material comes 
in contact with the cabinet for a long period of time, as that may 
cause damage or paint peeling.
