CHOOSE A POWER SOURCE
Be sure to insert the AA batteries according to the polarity
indications (+) and (-).
To ensure maximum performance of the camera and prevent battery
leak, we recommend the use of new batteries. Use ONLY Lithium
batteries or ONLY Alkaline batteries. Rechargeable AA batteries are
not recommended as the lower voltage they produce can cause
operational issues.
In order to get best results and longer battery life, we recommend
the use of an external 12V source.
INSERT THE MEMORY CARD
Insert an SD/SDHC memory card (up to 32 GB capacity) in the card
slot with the label side facing upward. The card is inserted correctly
when a click is heard. Always ensure that the camera power is OFF
before inserting an SD card.
We suggest to format your SD card if it’s been in another
electronic device.
