Warnings & Cautions
2
• Applies only to cameras with battery:
• Do not disassemble or do a modification to the battery. The battery contains safety
and protection devices which, if they become damaged, can cause the battery to
become hot, or cause an explosion or an ignition.
• If there is a leak from the battery and the fluid gets into your eyes, do not rub your
eyes. Flush well with water and immediately get medical care. The battery fluid
can cause injury to your eyes if you do not do this.
• Do not continue to charge the battery if it does not become charged in the speci-
fied charging time. If you continue to charge the battery, it can become hot and
cause an explosion or ignition.
• Only use the correct equipment to discharge the battery. If you do not use the cor-
rect equipment, you can decrease the performance or the life cycle of the battery.
If you do not use the correct equipment, an incorrect flow of current to the battery
can occur. This can cause the battery to become hot, or cause an explosion and
injury to persons.
• Make sure that you read all applicable MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheets) and warn-
ing labels on containers before you use a liquid: the liquids can be dangerous.
• If mounting the A3xx pt/A3xx f series camera on a pole, tower or any elevated location,
use industry standard safe practices to avoid injuries.
CAUTION
• Do not point the infrared camera (with or without the lens cover) at intensive energy
sources, for example devices that emit laser radiation, or the sun. This can have an un-
wanted effect on the accuracy of the camera. It can also cause damage to the detector
in the camera.
• Do not use the camera in a temperature higher than +50°C (+122°F), unless specified
otherwise in the user documentation. High temperatures can cause damage to the
camera.
• (Applies only to cameras with laser pointer:) Protect the laser pointer with the protec-
tive cap when you do not operate the laser pointer.
