2. Setup and Installation
The ABUS AU1321 Warning Sticker is designed for easy application on various surfaces, primarily walls and glass doors, to clearly indicate video surveillance.
2.1. Placement Considerations
- Visibility: Choose a location where the sticker is easily visible to anyone entering or approaching the monitored area.
- Legal Compliance: For publicly accessible rooms, a clear sign of video surveillance is legally required. Ensure the sticker is placed prominently to meet these regulations.
- Surface: The sticker is suitable for smooth, clean surfaces such as glass, metal, or painted walls.
- Weather Resistance: The sticker is weather-resistant, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor use.
2.2. Installation Steps
- Clean the Surface: Ensure the application surface is clean, dry, and free of dust, grease, or debris. Use a mild cleaner if necessary, and allow the surface to dry completely.
- Peel the Backing: Carefully peel the protective backing from the adhesive side of the sticker.
- Apply the Sticker: Position the sticker precisely on the desired surface. Start applying from one edge, smoothing it out to prevent air bubbles. Use a soft cloth or squeegee to press firmly across the entire surface of the sticker.
- Final Check: Verify that the sticker is securely adhered and free of wrinkles or bubbles.

3. Operating (Usage)
The ABUS AU1321 Warning Sticker operates passively by clearly communicating the presence of video surveillance. Its primary function is to serve as a visual notification and deterrent.
- Informative: The sticker explicitly states, "This object is monitored electronic," informing individuals of surveillance.
- Deterrent: Visible warning stickers can act as a deterrent against unauthorized activities.
- Legal Compliance: Helps fulfill legal requirements for notifying the public about video surveillance in designated areas.
4. Maintenance
The ABUS AU1321 Warning Sticker requires minimal maintenance due to its durable and weather-resistant plastic material.
- Cleaning: If the sticker becomes dirty, gently wipe it with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these may damage the print or material.
- Inspection: Periodically inspect the sticker for any signs of peeling, fading, or damage. Ensure it remains clearly visible and legible.
- Replacement: If the sticker becomes significantly damaged, faded, or begins to peel, it is recommended to replace it to maintain its effectiveness and legal compliance.
5. Troubleshooting
While the ABUS AU1321 Warning Sticker is a simple product, minor issues related to its application or appearance can be addressed.
- Sticker is peeling: Ensure the surface was thoroughly cleaned and dry before application. Re-apply with firm pressure or replace the sticker if the adhesive has lost its effectiveness.
- Air bubbles under the sticker: During application, use a soft cloth or squeegee to smooth out bubbles from the center outwards. For existing small bubbles, you may carefully prick them with a fine needle and smooth them down.
- Sticker is not visible enough: Re-evaluate the placement. Ensure there are no obstructions and that lighting conditions allow for clear visibility. Consider repositioning or adding additional stickers if necessary.
