SAFETY NOTE
WARNING
• Do not leave this camera in places subject to extremely high temperatures,
such as a sealed vehicle, direct sunlight or other places of extreme variances
in temperature.
Exposure to extreme temperatures may adversely affect the camera’s internal
components and could cause a fire.
• When in use, do not cover the camera or AC Power Adapter. This may cause
heat to build up and distort the camera case or cause a fire.
• Always use the camera and its accessories in a well-ventilated area. Leakage,
overheating, or burst batteries could result in fire or injury.
Do not short circuit, heat or dispose of batteries in fire.
Do not use old batteries with new ones, or mix brands of batteries.
Ensure the batteries are positioned correctly with regard to polarity(+/-).
• When the camera is not in use for long periods, always unplug the camera
from its power source space (batteries or AC Power Adapter) space for safety
purposes.
Leaking batteries can cause fire and pollution to the environment.
Allowing dust to accumulate in the camera over a long period is hazardous
as extreme circumstances may cause a fire. It is best to clean your camera
prior to seasonal periods of high humidity.
Consult Gateway for information on the cost of cleaning your camera.
• Do not move the camera while it is turned on, if you are using the AC Power
Adapter. After use, always switch off the camera before unplugging the
adapter from the AC Power wall socket. Then make sure that any
connector cords or cables to other devices are disconnected before moving
the camera.
Failure to do so may damage the cords or cables and cause a fire or electric
shock.
