4. INSTALLING THE BATTERIES AND SD CARD
Before you begin learning how to use your camera, you will first
need to install a set of batteries and insert an SD card. Although
that may only take you a minute, there are some important notes
about both batteries and SD cards you should be aware of, so
please take the time to
read the following directions and
cautions
:
4.1. LOADING BATTERIES
After opening the cover of the battery slot, you will see that the
camera has eight battery slots(
Figure 6
). A full set of four or eight
batteries must be installed for the camera to operate. Be sure to to
insert each battery with correct polarity (negative or "flat" end
against the long spring of each battery slot).
We recommend using eight new alkaline AA batteries.
On
SET
mode when battery power level gets low, the message
"
Low Battery
" will show on the screen, please replace the
batteries. And if the message "
Night vision is unavailable in low
voltage
" shown on the screen, that means the batteries don’t have
enough power to driver IR LEDs working, you have to replace the
batteries if you want the camera take pictures or videos at night,
but the camera still can works at daytime.
