I) Camera Precautions

Notice the following guidelines when using your camera

• ATC-2K is not shock-proof. You should avoid dropping it.

• For your safety, do not press the buttons on the camera during sports activities.

• Do not place the camera in a damp or dusty location for extended periods of time. This may cause a fire or an electrical shock.

• Do not leave the camera in places exposed to extremely high temperatures, such as under direct sunlight for extended periods of time. This may affect the camera housing and internal components.

• Clean the lens with a blower (typically a small device with a rubber bulb attached to one end that you pump to produce a stream of air out the other end), or wipe it with a soft cloth in a spiraling motion to remove fingerprints or dust.

• We recommend using Alkaline batteries in temperatures between 32° F to 104° F (0°C to 40°C).

• The working temperature range of a normal Alkaline AA battery is 32° F to 104° F (0°C to 40°C). Above or below this temperature may cause the batteries to malfunction. We recommend using Lithium batteries in temperatures below 32° F (0°C).

• Turn off the camera before removing the batteries and the memory card. The card and the data may be damaged if the memory card is inserted or removed while the camera is still on.

• Remove the batteries and memory card before storing the camera for long periods of time, then keep it in a well-ventilated place to prevent mould.

• Under the following circumstances, have the camera repaired by qualified personnel:

a) The plug is damaged or worn. b) The device has been dropped and/or the housing has been damaged. c) Liquid has entered the camera.

Disclaimer: Oregon Scientific will not, under any circumstances, be responsible for injuries or

property damages incurred during participation of any high-risk sport/activity not endorsed or recommended by Oregon Scientific. Should the camera malfunction under these circumstances, it would not be covered by the warranty. The warranty will cover manufacturing defects.
