● Recorded data on the memory card can be damaged or lost if the
data are accessed while the camera is under physical shock, power
interruption, memory card detachment or when the memory card
reaches the end of its lifespan. No guarantee is provided for such
causes.

● To avoid power outage, it is highly suggested to apply a battery
backup (UPS).

● For better performance, it is highly suggested to use Micro SD card of
MLC NAND flash, Class 10.

● Replace the memory card when its read/write speed is lower than 6
MB/s or when the memory card is frequently undetected by the
camera.
