WK 5 A3
■ 6 │ GB
■ Do not attach the device to free-standing or extremely tall trees,
since these are particularly susceptible to lightning strikes. If
the tree that the camera is attached to is struck by lightning, the
device may be destroyed.
■ Allow children to use the device only with supervision. Children
are not always able to correctly recognise potential dangers.
Children must not use the device as a plaything.
■ DANGER! Packaging material may not be used as a toy.
Risk of suffocation!
■ All repairs must be carried out by authorised specialist companies
or by the Customer Service department. Failure to make proper
repairs may put the user at risk. It will also invalidate any war-
ranty claims. This device may not be used by children.
■ Repairs to the device during the warranty period may only be
carried out by a customer service department authorised by the
manufacturer. Otherwise no warranty claims can be considered
for subsequent damage.
■ Defective components must always be replaced with original
replacement parts. Compliance with the safety requirements can
only be guaranteed by using these replacement parts.
■ Do not place any objects on the device.
■ DANGER! Never operate the device in the vicinity of open
flames (e.g. candles), and do not place burning candles on or
next to the device. This will help to prevent fires.
■ If you notice any unusual noises, smoke or similar unusual situa-
tions, remove the batteries and disconnect any attached mains
adapter from the power supply and contact Customer Service
(see Chapter "Service").

WK 5 A3 GB │ 7 ■
Risk of injury if batteries are improperly
handled
■ Keep batteries out of the reach of children. Children might put
batteries into their mouth and swallow them. If a battery has been
swallowed, seek medical assistance IMMEDIATELY.
■ Do not throw batteries into a fire. Never subject batteries to high
temperatures.
■ Risk of explosion! Do not charge batteries unless they are explic-
itly labelled as "rechargeable".
■ Do not open the batteries or short-circuit them.
■ Do not mix different types of batteries. Due to increased risk
of leakage, empty batteries should be removed. The batteries
should also be removed from the device if it is not being used for
long periods.
■ Battery acid leaking from a battery can cause skin irritation. In
the event of contact with the skin, rinse with plenty of water. If the
liquid comes into contact with your eyes, rinse thoroughly with
plenty of water, do not rub and consult a doctor immediately.
■ The chapter titled "Inserting the batteries/connecting power
supply" describes how to correctly insert and remove batteries.
Mishandling memory cards can lead to a
risk of injury
■ Children must be supervised to ensure they do not play with the
memory card. Seek medical help immediately if the memory card
is accidentally swallowed.

Possible infringements of the rights of third parties
Please note the following when using the game camera:
Copyright protection
Every person owns the rights to their own image. According to copy-
right law, pictures of people may only be published without their
permission if the affected person appears merely as an incidental
feature in a landscape or other location. The question as to whether
a person is merely an incidental feature must be ascertained on a
case by case basis. To avoid any legal uncertainty, a warning notice
about the game camera should be provided in all cases in which
recordings that could feature images of potentially identifiable per-
sons are possible (see Chapter "Duty of notification").
Protection of privacy
The privacy of others may not be infringed by any recorded images.
Do not set up the camera so it points to the garden or an entrance
of a neighbouring residence, even if these locations are easily visible
from your own residence or to the general public. This does not a
constitute a right to publish these views.
Personal identifiability
Personal identifiability exists when it can be established that a certain
person was at a certain location at a certain time. This identification
can be made by means of an identifier related to a specific person,
e.g. a car number plate. Personal identifiability must avoided under
all circumstances.

WK 5 A3 GB │ 9 ■
Surveillance cameras at the workplace
Surveillance at the workplace is subject to particularly strict legisla-
tion in Germany. Employers should not use surveillance cameras
in the workplace in any cases where this could lead to a possible
infringement of legal rights.
Road traffic surveillance cameras
In case of surveillance cameras directed at road traffic, it is advis-
able that the location of the camera and the framing of the image be
selected so that the road users cannot be identified by means of the
registration plates. Inscriptions/logos on vehicles may also serve as
a means of identifying a road user.
Duty of notification
If it is not possible to preclude the identification of persons, a notifica-
tion informing of the presence of the surveillance camera must be
placed at clearly visible locations on all access routes to the area
within the filming range of the camera. Pedestrians must also be
informed that by entering the filming range of the camera they give
their consent to be filmed/photographed and if they do not consent
then they should not access the affected area. The voluntary nature
of this consent must be considered. If the camera is located such
that an affected person must pass by in order to reach a destina-
tion (e.g. at the entrance to a place of interest) then the absence of
voluntariness precludes the granting of an effective consent.
The respective legal requirements of the country in which the camera
is being used should always be observed to avoid possible infringe-
ments of the rights of third parties.

Disposal of packaging materials
The packaging protects the device from damage during carriage.
The packaging materials have been selected for their environmental
friendliness and ease of disposal, and are therefore recyclable.
Returning the packaging to the material cycle conserves
raw materials and reduces the amount of waste that is
generated. Dispose of packaging materials that are no
longer needed in accordance with applicable local
regulations.
NOTICE
► If possible, keep the original packaging of the device during
the warranty period so that the device can be packed properly
for return shipment in the event of a warranty claim.
Set-up location requirements
This device complies with protection class IP54. This means that the
camera is protected from dust and water spray, and can be used
regardless of the weather conditions. However, proper protection
from dust and water spray is only provided if the camera is correctly
closed and all seals are intact and clean.
Please be aware that protection from dust and water spray will be
limited when used with an external mains adapter.

tery compartment cover clicks firmly in place.
♦ If you are operating the device on a mains adaptor (not sup-
plied), open the rubber seal on the bottom of the camera and
insert the plug of the AC adapter cable into the DC socket 20 .
The mains adapter must supply a direct-current voltage of 6V
with at least 1.5 A. Use a barrel jack whose interior polarity is
connected to the plus pole ( ).

WK 5 A3 GB │ 15 ■
Operation via a mains adapter is possible even with batteries
inserted. If one power source fails, operation will be maintained
using the other.
CAUTION
► When using an AC adapter, the splash water protection of the
device is no longer given.
Video connection
NOTICE
► The camera can transfer the video signal to an external monitor
or the video/audio input of a television set. Please also follow
the instructions of the respective playback device.
♦ Use the supplied TV cable 28 to connect to a suitable external
monitor via the camera’s AV socket 16 .
