Installation Location   
						

							Do not install in these
locations
Installing in the following areas may
cause deformation, discoloration,
malfunction, or operational failure
R In direct sunlight or directly under an
outdoor light (even if the surroundings are
within operational temperature range, parts
of the product may become hot)
R Areas subject to frequent vibration, shock,
or impact
R Near fire, heating devices, magnetic fields
(such as near magnets), or air conditioners
(including outdoor equipment such as unit
compressors)
R Areas exposed to grease or steam
R Near devices that emit strong radio waves,
such as mobile phones
R Areas subject to extreme temperature
changes (which can lead to condensation)
R Near coasts directly subjected to sea
breezes, or near sulfuric hot springs
(exposure to salt can shorten the life of the
product)
R Near TVs, radios, automated office
equipment such as computers, air
conditioners, water heater panels (with
intercom), or home security equipment
(these may cause noise)
R Near satellite broadcasting receivers such
as tuners, TVs with built-in satellite tuners,
and recorders (broadcasted images may be
distorted)
R Areas where hydrogen sulfide, ammonia,
dust, or toxic gases are present
Installing in the following areas may
cause false detections
R Areas where people approach directly from
the front of the camera, such as narrow
walkways
 Camera Difficult to detect
R Areas where objects such as trees or
hanging laundry move due to wind
(temperature variation and motion may
cause false detections)
R On roads with high traffic (passing cars
may cause sensor detections even if they
are 5 m (16.4 feet) or more away)

							RAreas affected by breezes from fans, air
conditioning unit compressors, water
heaters, or car exhaust (severe
temperature variations may cause false
detections)
R Areas with strong winds (wind can shake
the camera and cause false motion
detection)
R Areas with reflective objects, such as glass,
that can interfere with detection of
temperature variation
R Areas where brightness changes easily
(such as areas where shadows form in the
afternoon and lights turn on at night)
R Areas where backlight occurs (faces
appear dark and are difficult to identify),
such as the following
– Areas where most of the background is the sky
– Areas where direct sunlight reflects off a white wall or background
– Bright areas such as those exposed to direct sunlight

Installation precautions
R Do not install the camera on a ceiling.
R Do not install the camera in areas directly
exposed to water or rain.
R Holes must be made in the wall for cables
and wires to pass through. Panasonic takes
no responsibility for issues related to
opening holes in walls.
R Make sure to waterproof the holes you
make in the wall.
R Make sure you attach the safety wire to
prevent the camera from falling.
R Do not use an impact driver. (This may lead
to damaged screws or over-tightening.)
R Mount the camera on the stable location
where the unit can be adequately
supported when installing.
R The AC adaptor should be connected to a
vertically oriented or floor-mounted AC
outlet. Do not connect the AC adaptor to a
ceiling-mounted AC outlet, as the weight of
the adaptor may cause it to become
disconnected.
R Do not mount the camera on a soft
material. It may fall down, break or cause
injury.
Wall material information
Siding
R Use the included screws ø4 mm  ´ 25 mm
(ø5/32 inches  ´ 1 inch). Make sure the
pull-out capacity of each screw is at least
294 N (30 kgf).
R If the weight of the camera is supported by
the siding only, the siding could become
damaged. Make sure you mount the
camera in a location where the structure
behind the siding can be used to support
the weight of the camera. If this is not
possible due to the thickness of the siding,
use commercially-available screws ø4 mm
´  longer than 25 mm (ø5/32 inches  ´ longer
than 1 inch).
R Drill a pilot hole using a drill bit that is
appropriate for the type of siding. Remove
any debris after drilling the pilot hole. Do
not drill the pilot hole into the structure
behind the siding.

Concrete
R Do not use the included screws. Use screw
anchors (screw ø: 4 mm (5/32 inches))
designed for concrete walls.
R Carefully read the instructions supplied with
the anchors. Follow instructions regarding
drill bit diameter, hole depth, etc.
R Drill a pilot hole. Remove any debris after
drilling the pilot hole.

)
and then drill a pilot hole.
2 Remove debris.
3Insert an anchor, tighten the screw, then
remove the screw to secure the anchor.
4 Insert the screw and tighten it.
 Camera mounting stand
ALC (autoclaved lightweight cellular
concrete)
R Depending on the type of ALC panel, you
may not be able to attach the camera.
Consult the ALC panel manufacturer.
R Do not use the included screws. After
consulting the manufacturer of the ALC
panel, use only commercially-available
metal screw anchors (screw ø: 4 mm
(5/32 inches)) designed for ALC panels.
R Carefully read the instructions supplied with
the anchors. Follow instructions regarding
drill bit diameter, hole depth, etc.
R Drill a pilot hole. Remove any debris after
drilling the pilot hole.
R Seal the pilot hole with a
commercially-available waterproof sealant.
Other materials (mortar, tile, etc.)
R Do not use the included screws.
R Consult the builder or licensed professional
regarding the type of anchor appropriate for
the installation location and materials.
R Do not install on gypsum board or concrete
blocks.
