Maintenance

1. Cleaning

• Gently wipe the lens and IR LEDs with a soft, lint-free cloth to remove dirt or smudges.
• Clean the camera body with a damp cloth as needed. Avoid harsh chemicals.
• Ensure the LCD screen is clean for clear viewing of settings and captured media.

2. Battery Management

• Regularly check battery levels, especially before deploying the camera for extended periods.
• Replace all batteries simultaneously to ensure consistent power.
• If using rechargeable batteries, ensure they are fully charged.

3. SD Card Management

• Periodically transfer captured photos and videos to a computer to free up space on the SD card.
• Format the SD card regularly (e.g., once a month or after each major use) to maintain optimal performance and prevent data corruption.

4. Waterproof Seal

• Ensure the battery compartment and SD card slot covers are always securely closed to maintain the IP66 waterproof rating.
• Inspect the rubber seals for any signs of wear or damage and replace if necessary.

Troubleshooting

1. Blurry Night Photos / Overexposed Images

• Issue: Night photos appear blurry or overexposed, especially at close range.
• Solution: The infrared illumination might be too powerful for very close subjects. Try positioning the camera further away from the target (e.g., more than 5 meters). The IR flash is more effective at longer distances.

2. Moisture or Fogging Inside Lens

• Issue: Condensation or fog appears inside the lens, affecting image clarity.
• Solution: This can occur due to significant temperature variations or high humidity. Ensure the camera's battery compartment and SD card slot are completely sealed. If possible, avoid placing the camera in areas prone to extreme humidity or rapid temperature changes. Allow the camera to air dry in a warm, dry environment if moisture is present.

3. Camera Not Turning On

• Solution: Check if the batteries are inserted correctly with the correct polarity. Ensure the batteries have sufficient charge. Try replacing with a fresh set of batteries. Verify that the mode switch is firmly in the ON position.

4. Camera Not Recording

• Solution: Ensure an SD card is properly inserted and formatted. Check if the SD card is full; if so, transfer data and format it. Verify that the camera is in the correct operating mode (e.g., ON mode, not TEST mode for active recording). Check PIR sensitivity settings.
