CAUTION
Applicability: Cameras with one or more batteries.
The temperature range through which you can remove the electrical power from the battery is -15°C to
+50°C (+5°F to +122°F), unless other information is specified in the user documentation or technical
data. If you operate the battery out of this temperature range, it can decrease the performance or the life
cycle of the battery.
CAUTION
Applicability: Cameras with one or more batteries.
When the battery is worn, apply insulation to the terminals with adhesive tape or equivalent materials
before you discard it. Damage to the battery and injury to persons can occur if you do not do this.
CAUTION
Applicability: Cameras with one or more batteries.
Remove any water or moisture on the battery before you install it. Damage to the battery can occur if
you do not do this.
CAUTION
Do not apply solvents or equivalent liquids to the camera, the cables, or other items. Damage to the bat-
tery and injury to persons can occur.
CAUTION
Be careful when you clean the infrared lens. The lens has an anti-reflective coating which is easily dam-
aged. Damage to the infrared lens can occur.
CAUTION
Do not use too much force to clean the infrared lens. This can cause damage to the anti-reflective
coating.
Note The encapsulation rating is only applicable when all the openings on the camera
are sealed with their correct covers, hatches, or caps. This includes the compartments
for data storage, batteries, and connectors.
CAUTION
Do not change the standard fire-fighting procedures when you use a FLIR K series camera. The FLIR K
series camera is not a replacement technology.
CAUTION
Do not use the FLIR K series camera without the correct training. If the persons that operate the camera
do not have the correct training, an incorrect analysis of the infrared images can occur. Thus, incorrect
decisions during the firefighting can be made.
The training must include:
• How a thermal camera operates and its limits
• How to interpret an image
• How to work safely with the camera.
CAUTION
Make sure that you do not use a torque value that is more than 80 Ncm on the Torx T20 screw. Damage
to the camera can occur if you do not obey this.
