- Install the App (Optional): For enhanced features and control, download and install the dedicated Oraimo gimbal app from your smartphone's app store.
Operating Instructions
- Basic Controls: The control panel features intuitive buttons for various functions. Refer to the specific button layout on your device for detailed functions such as mode switching, recording start/stop, and zoom control.

Maintenance
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the gimbal. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the surface.
- Storage: Store the gimbal in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. When not in use for extended periods, ensure the battery is partially charged (around 50%) to prolong its lifespan.
- Battery Care: Do not expose the battery to high temperatures or disassemble it. Charge the gimbal regularly, even if not in frequent use, to maintain battery health.
Troubleshooting
- Gimbal Not Powering On: Ensure the gimbal is fully charged. If the issue persists, try connecting it to a different charging cable or power adapter.
- Unstable Footage: Verify that your smartphone is securely mounted and balanced in the clamp. Ensure the gimbal is calibrated correctly (refer to app instructions if applicable).
- Face Tracking Not Working: Confirm that Bluetooth is connected and the Oraimo app (if used) has the necessary permissions. Ensure the subject's face is clearly visible to the camera.
- Bluetooth Connection Issues: Try restarting both the gimbal and your smartphone. Ensure no other devices are interfering with the Bluetooth signal.
