SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

DO NOT use the system or accessories near water. Avoid ex-

posing your system to moisture. The system is not waterproof,

so contact with water could cause permanent damage to the

system as well as electric shock and serious injury to the user.

DO NOT use the system in the rain or under other conditions

with high moisture without appropriate protection, and imme-

diately remove power source if system or accessories are ex-

posed to moisture.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or elec-

tric shock, do not expose the camera or

system to rain or moisture.

DO NOT expose your system to excessive vibration or impact

(shock). Be careful not to drop your camera or system. Internal

mechanisms may be damaged by severe shock. Mechanical

alignment of optical elements may be affected by excessive

vibration.

ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE: The use of devices us-

ing radio or other communication waves may result in the mal-

function or interference with the unit and/or with audio and

video signals.

Clean only using a dry cloth. When cleaning your system, re-

member that it is not waterproof and moisture can damage

electronic circuitry. DO NOT rinse or immerse any element of

the camera, lens or other accessory, keep them dry at all times.

DO NOT use soaps, detergents, ammonia, alkaline cleaners,

and abrasive cleaning compounds or solvents. These sub-

stances may damage lens coatings and electronic circuitry.

Maintain sufficient ventilation - DO NOT block any ventilation

openings or obstruct cooling fan airflow.

CAUTION: Proper camera ventilation re-

quires a minimum 1/2" (1.25 cm) clear-

ance between the camera ventilation

openings and external surfaces. Verify

that objects that can block the fan intake

and exhaust ports do not impede airflow.

Failure to permit adequate airflow may re-

sult in overheating of the camera, degrad-

ed operation and in extreme situations,

damage to the camera.

DO NOT operate or store near any heat sources such as radia-

tors, heat registers, stoves, or any other apparatus that pro-

duce heat. Store in a protected, level and ventilated place.

Avoid exposure to temperature extremes, damp, severe vibra-

tion, strong magnetic fields, direct sunlight or local heat sourc-

es during storage. Remove any batteries from the T.H.C. before

storage. Recommended storage and usage temperatures for

your system are:

‒

Operating range: 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F)

‒

Storage range: -20°C to 50°C (-4°F to 122°F)

If there are any performance issues with your system when

operating within this temperature range, please file a support

ticket on

support.red.com

The W.M.D. is NOT HOT SWAPPABLE – meaning you cannot

remove or install while the camera is powered on. Before in-

stalling or removing, you MUST power down the camera. Fail-

ure to do so may result in damage to the accessory and / or

camera brain that will not be covered under warranty.

Protect all power cords from being pinched, walked on or driv-

en over by a vehicle. Replace any power cords suspected of

sustaining damage due to crushing or other forms of damage.

Lithium Ion batteries may be subject to special handling re-

quirements pursuant to federal and local laws. Please refer to

specific shipping instructions included with your battery re-

garding proper transport of your battery. Do not handle your

battery if it is damaged or leaking. Disposal of batteries must

be in accordance with local environmental regulations. For ex-

ample, California law requires that all rechargeable batteries

must be recycled by an authorized recycle center. Storing bat-

teries that are fully charged, fully discharged, in high tempera-

tures, or otherwise outside the recommended storage condi-

tions may permanently reduce the life of the battery. Available

battery capacity may also be temporarily lessened after stor-

age in low temperature conditions.

WARNING: DO NOT expose batteries to ex-

cessive heat.

WARNING: Danger of explosion if an in-

correct battery is charged with a RED Li

Battery Charger 7.2V or is used to power

the T.H.C. Replace only with the same or

equivalent type battery.

CAUTION: Refer all service and repair to

qualified RED service personnel. To reduce

the risk of electric shock, and damage to

the camera or accessories, DO NOT at-

tempt to perform any servicing other than

any procedures that are recommended in

the operating instructions.
