4.3 Capturing Images and Recording Videos
Once the device is powered on and the camera is positioned, use the dedicated buttons to capture still images or start/stop video recording. Refer to the on-screen icons for current mode (photo/video).
4.4 Viewing Media

5. Maintenance
5.1 Cleaning the Lens and Screen
Gently wipe the camera lens and the IPS screen with a soft, lint-free cloth. For stubborn smudges, a small amount of lens cleaning solution can be applied to the cloth (not directly to the lens/screen).
5.2 Battery Care
To prolong battery life, avoid fully discharging the battery frequently. Charge the device regularly, even if not in use for extended periods (e.g., once every 3 months).
5.3 Storage
Store the endoscope in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Ensure the lens cable is neatly coiled without sharp bends.
5.4 Water Resistance Precautions
While the camera head is IP67 waterproof, the main unit is not. Do not submerge the main unit in water or expose it to heavy rain. Ensure the USB and TF card ports are properly sealed with their silicone covers when not in use, especially in damp environments.
