6. Maintenance

6.1 Battery Management

The doorbell camera is battery-powered. Battery life typically ranges from 4 to 6 weeks per charge, depending on usage frequency. Frequent live view access and numerous recordings will reduce battery life, requiring more frequent recharging.

To recharge, remove the doorbell camera from its mounting bracket and connect it to a USB power source using the provided cable.

6.2 Cleaning

Wipe the camera lens and the doorbell's exterior with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and smudges. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.

7. Troubleshooting

Q: Unable to connect the doorbell camera to your network?

1. This doorbell works only with 2.4GHz Wi-Fi; ensure it's connected to a 2.4GHz network.
2. Confirm that the Wi-Fi name and password are entered correctly.
3. Ensure the device is no further than 33 feet (10 meters) from the router.

Q: Does this camera work with 5GHz Wi-Fi?

No, it's designed to operate on 2.4GHz Wi-Fi only. We recommend having both 2.4GHz and 5GHz networks set up with unique names for reliable connection.

Q: Is an SD card needed for this video doorbell?

This doorbell camera does not support SD cards. It uses cloud storage (sold separately).

Q: How long before the doorbell camera's battery runs out?

Generally, the battery of the doorbell camera can last anywhere from 4 to 6 weeks per charge, but this is subject to how often the camera is recording. Increased usage and frequent Live View will shorten the battery life, leading to more regular recharging.

Q: Can recorded footage from the doorbell camera be stored in the cloud?

A cloud service subscription is necessary for video storage, with a trial period offered at no charge. If content, the subscription follows automatically after the trial, or you may cancel during the trial without incurring charges if not fully satisfied.
