REMOVE THE CAMERA FROM THE MOUNTING BRACKET

• Push the tab to release the camera from the mounting bracket. 

• Remove the camera. 

CHARGING THE INTERNAL BATTERY

Charge the camera for 24-48 hours before use. While charging, 

make sure the camera is turned off and the solar panel is facing 

down so it does not interfere with the USB charging process.

 

Plug the 12V-USB cable from the 12V port at the bottom of the 

camera and connect it to a USB port. Once plugged, the screen will 

turn on and it will show the charging battery level for 10 seconds. 

Press the OK button once more to see the battery level reappear.

INSERT THE MEMORY CARD

Insert an SD/SDHC memory card (up to 32 GB capacity) in the card 

slot with the label side facing upward. The card is inserted correctly 

when a click is heard. Always ensure that the camera power is OFF 

before inserting an SD card. 

We suggest to format your SD card if it’s been in another  

electronic device.

Getting started

PRO TIPS:

 

Solar panel & internal rechargeable battery

● You  need  at  least  50%  of  the  solar  panel  cleared  for 

 

  maximum performance.

● If the power of the internal battery becomes insufficient, the 

 

  camera will shut down. Once the battery has been charged  

  sufficiently by the solar panel, the camera will automatically turn

 

  on leaving the settings untouched.

● An optional power source can be added as a backup to the

 

  internal rechargeable battery for safety.

Recommended installation height

● The  camera  should  be  installed  at  the  same  height  as  the 

 

  animal’s mid-body.

Ideal installation for quality pictures & videos

● The targeted animal should be 25 feet / 7.5m away from the

 

  camera for a better field of view. 
● To get brighter pictures at night , you should have elements in the 

 

  background to reflect back the IR flash to the camera.
