4. Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Guune Solar Trail Camera, consider the following maintenance tips:

• Weather Resistance: The camera is built with an IP66 waterproof rating, designed to withstand heavy rain, dust, and extreme temperatures ranging from -15°C to 60°C. While robust, avoid submerging the camera in water.
