The equipment can function independent of the
mains for approx. 2.5 hours with a fully charged
battery.
New batteries reach their full capacity after 4-5
charge and discharge cycles. Batteries which have
not been used for a long time should be recharged
before use.
Temperatures in excess of 50°C reduce the
battery's performance. Avoid long periods of
exposure to sunor heat.

where applicable, disconnect the power supply
unit.
Close the cover ensuring that it locks into place.

jet).Clean the camera head with water (spray jet)
before inserting it into the bracket.

1
Press the button and open the cover,
ensuring that it locks into place.
2 Switch on the equipment using the rotary
button.
Switch on the display screen using the
"POWER"button.
3 Remove the camera head from the bracket
and uncoil the reel cable from the reel.
The reel cable is rigid and under mechanical
stress.
Therefore hold the reel cable tight when
uncoiling it from the reel!
4 Insert the camera head in the tube system
and feed it in carefully with the reel cable.
Do not kink the reel cable or pull it over
sharp edges!
Wear protective gloves!
Always stand beside the reel
cable!
For tube ø greater than 80 mm mount the guide
pieces. The guide pieces can be adjusted to the
tube ø by cutting off the margins.
The reel cable can form loops while being
fed in constituting a risk of fracture!
The camera picture can turn upside down
while being fed through several bends in the
tube – this is a normal occurrence and does
not mean that the system is defective.
Upon completion of work pull the reel cable out of
the tube and roll it directly onto the reel.
Clean the camera head under flowing water (spray
jet – not pressure jet)
Replace camera head in bracket.
Close cover. Display screen switches off
automatically.
