Operating Instructions

Using Loop Recording

Loop recording can be enabled through the camera's settings (accessible via the mobile app). When activated, the camera will continuously record. Once the memory card is full, the oldest files will be automatically overwritten by new recordings. Ensure important footage is backed up regularly.

Connecting to Mobile App

After pairing the camera with your smartphone via Wi-Fi (as described in the Setup section), open the Dpofirs app. You can then view a live feed, adjust settings, initiate/stop recording, take photos, and download recorded content directly to your phone for editing and sharing.

Using the Waterproof Case

For underwater activities or protection against water and dust, place the camera securely inside the provided waterproof case. Ensure the case is properly sealed before submerging. The case allows the camera to be used up to a depth of 30 meters.

Maintenance

• Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the camera body. For the lens, use a specialized lens cleaning cloth and solution to avoid scratches. Do not use harsh chemicals.
• Waterproof Case Care: After each use in water, rinse the waterproof case with fresh water and allow it to air dry. Regularly check the rubber seals for any signs of wear or damage to ensure continued waterproofing.
