DNS-33W 0503 VOL1 (E) DNS-33W ii SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
3. Precautions on Handling This product has been designed with safety well concerned; however, all electrical appliances may cause electrocution accidents or equipment damage if used in an inappropriate manner, or under unsuitable conditions. Therefore, please follow the instructions on handling this product, listed below: (1) Do not remove the cover or disassemble unless absolutely necessary, to prevent damage and electrocution. (2) Always turn the POWER switch OFF after use. Leaving the POWER switch ON when not in use may result in not only the battery running out, but also equipment damage or accidents when using an AC pack. (3) Remove the battery from the camera if not using the camera for a long time. The battery runs out if left inserted in the equipment, even if it is not used. (4) Do not expose the camera to a strong vibration or shock. A strong vibration or shock may cause equipment damage. (5) Do not lift or hold the camera by the projection parts. Lifting or holding the camera by the viewfinder or the lens causes the center of gravity of the camera to become unstable so you may drop it. Moreover, the connection parts between the camera and the viewfinder, or the camera and the lens may be exposed to unnecessary pressure, which may cause equipment damage. (6) Always install the accessories after placing the camera on a fixed position. When installing a lens or microphone, fix the camera on a stable place (e.g. on a table, a tripod, etc.), to make the installation easier and to prevent dropping the equipment. (7) Avoid use or storage in the following conditions: ¥ Extremely high/low temperature ¥ High humidity ¥ Strong magnetic field ¥ In direct sunlight for a long time, or near a heater ¥ In rain without the rain cover ¥ Exposed to water drops/spray (8) Avoid moving the equipment rapidly from an extremely cold place to a warm place. Condensation may occur in the CCD part. (9) When shooting an important scene, always hold a trial in advance to check the videotaping and recording. (10) Regarding the Lithium Battery ¥ Do not use an unspecified battery. ¥ Explosion or liquid leak of the battery may cause fire or injury. When changing or discarding a battery, please contact Ikegami's sales or operation quarters. (11) Wipe the dirt/dust off the camera using a dry, soft cloth. If the stain is hard, soak the cloth with water or detergent, wring well, and wipe. If you use detergent, wipe off the detergent with a cloth that was soaked in just water and wrung well. When wiping, always turn the power off, and take care not to put water in the camera.
4. Regular Maintenance Recommended
This product includes parts that wears out and have a limited life even in proper use or storage. Therefore, regular maintenance (once every 3 years or 8000 hours use) is recommended to extend the life and safe use of this product for a long time. Please contact Ikegami sales and service centers or Techno Ikegami Co., Ltd. for the regular maintenance and repair of our products.
