difficult to see the images on the screen,
even when the system is functioning:
• In the dark (for example, at night)
• When the temperature near the lens is
high or low
• When water droplets are adhering to the camera, or when humidity is high
(for example, when it rains)
• When foreign matter (for example, snow or mud) is adhering to the cam-
era
• When the camera has scratches or dirt on it
• When the sun or the beam of head- lights is shining directly into the cam-
era lens
● When the camera is used under fluores-
cent lights, sodium lights, or mercury
lights etc., the lights and the illuminated
areas may appear to flicker.
