For the customers in Canada

This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003.

Pour la clientèle canadienne

Cet appareil numerique de la Classe B est conforme a la norme NMB-003 
du Canada.

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class 

B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful 

interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and 

can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance 

with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular 

installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or 

television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and 

on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of 

the following measures:

 

Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

 

Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

 

Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which 

the receiver is connected.

 

Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the 

following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, 

and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference 

that may cause undesired operation.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by 

Sanyo

 may void the user's 

authority to operate this camera.

J

In case of problem

Do not use the camera if smoke or strange odors come 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. 

J

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.

J

Do not put objects inside the unit

Make sure that no metal objects or flammable substances get 
inside the camera. If used with a foreign object inside, it could 
cause fire, short-circuits or damage. If water or 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.

J

Be careful when handling the unit

To prevent damage, do not drop the camera or subject it to strong 
shock or vibration.

J

Install away from electric or magnetic fields

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

J

Protect from humidity and dust

To prevent damage to the camera, do not install it where there is 
greasy smoke or steam, where humidity may get too high, or where 
there is a lot of dust.

J

Protect from high temperatures

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

°

C (14

°

F) and 50

°

(122

°

F). (no condensation)

Cleaning

 

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

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

 

Do not use benzine, thinner or other chemical products on the 

cabinet, as they 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 extended periods, as that may 
cause damage or paint peeling.

Q

 Attaching the lens

Use a DC type auto-iris lens (sold separately).

 

Do not use a lens if length “L” is more than 5 mm. 

Otherwise, it may damage the camera and prevent 
proper installation.

 

When attaching a C mount lens, attach the lens to the 

camera after inserting the C mount ring (option).

1

Remove the lens mount 
cap from the camera.

2

Install the auto-iris lens.

3

Connect the lens plug to 
the lens iris output 
connector (LENS) on the 
side of the camera.

When using lenses from other manufacturers, the plug shape may not 
correspond to the terminal on the camera. In such a case, remove the 
original plug and using a soldering iron, connect the supplied lens iris plug 
according to the diagram.

Q

 Rewiring the lens cable in the lens iris plug

1

Prepare the lens cable.

Cut the cable at the plug, then remove approx. 8 mm of 
the cable sheath and strip about 2 mm from each wire.

2

Install the lens iris plug.

Solder the cable to the pins following the correct pin 
layout (

), then close the plug cover.

Has the iris of the lens inside the camera been adjusted correctly 

(with the iris dial)?

 

Is there adequate illumination?

J

If the image is unclear

 

Is the monitor adjusted correctly?

 

Is the flange-back position correctly set?

 

Is the lens in focus?

 

Is the lens dirty?

Dirt or fingerprints on the lens can adversely affect the image. 
Gently wipe any dirt or fingerprints off the lens with a soft cloth or 
lens cleaning paper and cleaning fluid (commercially available).

The camera is a precision instrument. Handle it carefully and 
always follow the safety precautions. If the camera requires service,
