♦
If you operate the device using a mains adapter (not supplied), open the round rubber seal on the base plate and connect the plug of the adapter cable into the socket for the external mains adapter, which is now accessible. The mains adapter must supply a direct-current voltage of 6 V. Use a barrel jack whose interior polarity is connected to the plus pole. Operation via a mains adapter is possible with batteries inserted. If one power source fails, operation will be maintained using the other.
Inserting storage media
►
Since the camera has no built-in memory, it can only work if an SD/SDHC memory card is inserted.
After inserted, format the SD card , so that to improve the battery life and shutter speed.
►
The device supports SD/SDHC memory cards with a capacity of up to 32 GB.
►
To avoid malfunctions, keep the memory card away from moisture and avoid strong vibration, dust, heat sources and direct sunlight.
►
Insert the memory card as indicated by the icon on the slot.
Never force the memory card into the slot. Never bend or twist the memory card.
►
After transport, wait until the memory card has reached ambient temperature before using it for the first time. Major fluctuations in temperature or humidity can lead to condensation which could cause an electrical short-circuit. Keep the memory card in the protective case.
►
When the SD memory card is full, it will automatically stop take picture and record video. And the light will be closed.
♦
To remove an SD/SDHC memory card from the memory card slot of the device, press the protruding edge of the memory card in a little way until it pops out. Then remove the card.
♦
To insert an SD/SDHC memory card into the memory card slot of the device, push it into the slot until it clicks into place. The contact surfaces of the memory card must be facing towards the front of the camera.
♦
SD/SDHC memory cards have a locking system to prevent accidental erasure. To protect the card from write access, slide the switch on the side of the card to the“LOCK”position. However, the camera can only save data onto the card if the switch is in the other position.
