Congratulations on your new SJCAM Action Camera!

We know you’re excited to use your SJ6 LEGEND, please take time to read this manual before
doing anything with it. This is the very first touchscreen SJCAM, and there’s plenty you can do,
so you need to familiarize yourself with the features now to get the most out of it.

It is important to keep your camera’s firmware up to date. You may connect your camera via
WiFi to the SJCAM ZONE app to automatically download and install the latest firmware, or visit
www.sjcamhd.com/firmware.

under prolonged exposure to heat.

4. Do not submerge the camera without putting it in the included waterproof case.
