Getting started
CHARGING THE LITHIUM BATTERY
Remove the lithium battery pack from the camera.
Using the Micro USB cable, recharge the battery pack for about 12 hours.
Once the lithium pack is fully charged, the red light will turn green.
Do not insert AA batteries into the lithium battery compartment, as this could damage the camera.
HOW YOUR CAMERA USES SEVERAL POWER SOURCES
1. The main power source of your camera is the lithium battery
pack (#LIT-10 included), which provides a long charge time, more than double that of AA batteries.
The solar panel is designed to maintain the battery
pack’s charge. The camera will be energy self-sucient under ideal conditions (an adequate conguration, i.e. low power consumption and a sunny environment).
When the battery pack charge level becomes insu-
cient, the camera will turn o.
The solar panel will continue to power the battery pack.
However, for quick and complete recharging, connect the battery pack to a wall outlet using the supplied USB cable and a USB power adapter.
When you restart your camera, after recharging the battery
pack, it will return to the settings you previously selected.
2. Moreover, the camera was designed to recognize and use a
primary power source other than the lithium battery pack:
As soon as you plug an external 12V battery (#BATT-12V,
sold separately) era’s new primary power s ource. The lithium battery pack
will only be used once the 12V battery is depleted.
Simply plug the 12V cable into the 12V jack of the
camera and connect the other end to the 12V battery.

Getting started
USING AN EXTERNAL 12V BATTERY
Using an external 12V battery source does not recharge the
lithium battery pack.
The solar panel will not recharge an external 12V battery.
FORMATTING YOUR MicroSD CARD
Before inserting the MicroSD card into your camera, it must be reformatted via a computer to ensure proper functionality.
Memory card is sold separately. Whether you choose to use a Mi­croSD card you previously used in another device or a brand new one you've just bought, its capacity must not exceed 32 GB and it must be reformatted. Do not use the ‘’Quick format’’ option.
INSERTING A MicroSD CARD
Ensure the camera is turned o.
Insert a MicroSD memory card (up to 32 GB capacity) into
the MicroSD card slot with the label facing up.
The card is inserted correctly when a click is heard.
