Eight batteries must be installed (four in camera and four in mounting bracket) as shown in the Quick Start Guide in
the front of this manual. Incorrectly installed batteries will cause device malfunction.
Caution: Do not mix batteries types! Using different battery types in the camera may cause permanent
damage which is not covered by the warranty policy.
Due to different settings, objects activities within camera detection zone, different brands and quality of batteries,
and environment usage, etc., it is not possible to determine the exact number of photos and videos that the camera
can capture. The table below only shows the approximate number of photos or videos the camera can take with 8 AA
alkaline batteries. Again, better performance can be achieved with 8 AA lithium or 8 AA rechargeable batteries.
