• Performanceofthedeviceinnighttimeconditionsdependsonthelevelofambientlightin
the environment. Please remember the following:
— The level of ambient light is reduced by the presence of clouds, shade, or objects that block
natural light (trees, buildings, etc.).
— The equipment is less eective when operated in shadows and other darkened areas.
— The equipment is less eective when operated in rain, fog, sleet, snow, dust or smoke.
— The equipment will not “see” through dense smoke.
• Atoperatingtemperaturesbelow-20°C(-4°F),theuseof analkalinebattery isnotrecom-
mended, as the battery life will be severely reduced. Under said conditions, lithium-iron disul-
de1.5VAAbatteriesortheirequivalentshouldbeused.
