Maintenance
1. Cleaning
Wipe the camera and silicone case with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use liquid cleaners or solvents. Keep the lens clean for clear photos.

Troubleshooting
Camera Not Responding / Frozen Screen
If the product stops responding due to improper operation, locate the reset button. This is typically a small pinhole. Use a thin object (like a paperclip) to gently press the reset button. The camera will restart and return to normal operation.
Poor Image Quality
- Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from smudges or dust.
- Check lighting conditions; sufficient light is necessary for clear images.
- Verify that the screen protector (if any) has been removed from the lens area.
Cannot Save Photos/Videos
- Check if the 32GB Micro SD card is properly inserted.
- Ensure the memory card is not full. Delete unnecessary files or transfer them to a computer to free up space.
- If the card is corrupted, it may need to be formatted (this will erase all data) or replaced.
