Getting Started
Before First Use
• Unpack the product but keep all packaging materials until you have
made sure your new Action Camera is undamaged and in good working
order. Plastic wrapping can be a suffocation hazard for babies and young
children, so ensure all packaging materials are kept out of their reach.
• Inspect the supplied USB cable and ensure it is undamaged. Do not use it
for charging the product if the cable is damaged.
• Read this manual to familiarise yourself with the product, including its
buttons, functions and accessories. Pay particular attention to the safety
instructions on the previous pages.
Charging the Lithium Battery
The battery has been partially charged at the factory. To perform all functions,
we recommend you fully recharge the battery before using the camera for the
first time.
• Ensuring that the camera is switched off, connect the camera to a
computer or use a standard 5V 0.5A wall adaptor using the supplied USB
charging cable.
• The indicator will illuminate during charging. It will turn off once the battery
is fully charged.
• A full charge generally takes about 4 hours.

Getting Started (Cont.)
Installing a Memory Card
The camera does not come equipped with any
built-in memory storage. An external Micro SD
card is required to capture and save any images or
recordings. Ensure that the Micro SD card you have
inserted has a maximum capacity of 64GB.
• Make sure the camera is switched off before
inserting the memory card.
• Insert a Micro SD card into the SD card slot (as
illustrated) on the left side of the camera next to
the Micro USB port. You will hear a click sound
when the the card is locked in. Make sure the card
is fully inserted.
• To remove the Micro SD card, gently press the end of the memory card
inward and the card will eject.
Memory Card Precautions
A Micro SD card is a precision electronic component. Always handle it with
care. Protect the card from static electricity and strong shocks.
If you are installing a previously used memory card into the camera, make
sure to back up any data stored on the card, to avoid possible data loss.
To avoid any loss of data or damage to the Micro SD card, adhere to the
following:
• Do not bend, drop or subject the card to shock.
• Do not expose the card to high temperatures, humidity or direct sunlight.
• Do not expose the card to static or electromagnetic fields.
• Do not remove the memory card while it is in use.
• Do not touch the metal surface of the card with your fingers or objects.
• Do not use the memory card beyond its lifespan.
We strongly recommend you back up all data on the Micro SD card to
another storage device so you do not risk losing any data in case of an
unexpected device failure or accident. We do not assume liability for any
loss of data due to misuse or malfunction. Data backup is your personal
responsibility.

Waterproof Housing
The camera comes supplied with a transparent waterproof housing, which
allows you to take video footage or photos in wet conditions or under water
at a depth of up to 30 meters.
To use the camera with the waterproof housing, observe the following:
• Select the desired menu options.
• Place the camera in the waterproof housing and close it carefully using the
locking clip located at the top of the case. Make sure the latch lock key is
securely in place.
• Once the camera is securely installed, you can use the ON/OFF and
Shutter buttons by pushing the push buttons located on top of the
waterproof housing.
WARNING: Once the camera is secured in the case, make sure that all seals
are in place to prevent water intrusion.
Getting Started (Cont.)
Before using the camera in wet conditions
• Before sealing the case, ensure the rubber seal of the camera housing
is clean — even a single hair or grain of sand can cause a leak. You can
test watertightness by closing the case without inserting the camera.
• Submerge the empty case completely in water for about a minute.
Remove the case from the water, dry off its exterior with a towel,
then open the case. If the entire interior is dry, the case is safe for use
underwater.
• After using the camera in saltwater, rinse the outside of the housing with
non-saltwater and dry. If not properly cleaned, corrosion can occur on
the hinge and the pin, which can cause failure.
• WARNING: Do not use aggressive substances such as acetone to
clean the case, as these can cause permanent damage.
• To clean the seal, rinse in fresh water and shake dry (drying with a cloth
may cause lint to compromise the seal). Re-install the seal into the
grooves in the back door of the housing.

• Power-o due to low battery: If the camera’s battery power has dropped
to extremely low levels, the icon will appear on the LCD screen and
you will have to recharge the battery. When the icon turns red and flashes,
the camera will automatically power off.
