Electrical safety
• All installation and operation here should conform to your local electrical safety codes.
• Check that the power supply is correct before operating the camera.
• Ensure the power supply conforms to the requirement in the SELV (Safety Extra Low Voltage) and the
Limited power source is rated DC 12V or AC 24V in the IEC60950-1. (Power supply requirement is subject
to the device label).
• Do not install wiring while the camera is powered on.
• Prevent the power cable from being trampled or pressed, especially the plug, power socket and junction.

installation.
• We assume no liability or responsibility for any problems caused by unauthorized modification or

Environment
• Do not aim the camera at strong light (such as lighting, sunlight, etc) to focus; this may cause overexposure,
which will affect the longevity of the CCD and/or CMOS.

strong electromagnetic radiation or unstable lighting.
• Do not allow water or other liquids to fall into the camera; this may damage internal components.
• Do not allow water or other liquids to make contact with indoor cameras (cameras with no IP rating); this
may damage the camera or cause fire/electrical shocks.
• Keep the camera well ventilated in case of heat accumulation.
• Pack the camera with the included factory packaging (or material of similar quality) while transporting
to prevent damage.
• While being transported, stored or installed, ensure the camera does not experience heavy stress, strong
vibration or liquid contact .

• Install the camera using the standard accessories provided by the manufacturer and make sure the
device is installed and fixed by professionals.

Operation and Daily Maintenance
• Do not touch the heat dissipation component of the camera directly in order to avoid burns.
• Do not dismantle the device; there is no component which can be fixed directly by users in the camera.
Contact the supplier to replace desiccant if it becomes green.
• Grounding the camera is recommended to enhance the reliability of it.
• Do not touch the CCD (CMOS) optic component directly. Use an air duster to clean dust or dirt on the lens
surface, or use a cloth lightly wet with alcohol to wipe away dust gently.
• Use a dry soft cloth to clean the camera. If there’s a large amount of dust, use a mild detergent diluted
with water first. Don’t use volatile solvents such as alcohol, benzene, thinner or strong detergents, as this
may damage the surface coating or damage the camera.
• To clean the lens, use a dry soft cloth to wipe water or oil gently until dry, then use an oil-free cotton cloth
or paper soaked with alcohol/detergent to wipe from the centre of the lens outwards.

1.3 Cable management
Lead the cable out through your ceiling or wall. This can protect and hide the cable effectively.
1.2.1 Bottom wiring
1.2.2 Side wiring
Lead the cable out through the side exit and add a metal conduit to prevent the cable from being
damage.
1.2.2 Advantages of the microSD
Note: Having a standalone microSD card will not ensure that you have the same quality playback, nor
the capacity compared to a separate NVR or storage device.
The microSD card is useful for anyone who wishes to have another way to back up storage, or is on a
budget and doesn’t have a recorder. The microSD card is placed inside of the camera, and can hold
a set amount of storage (dependent on size of card) for any intended use, such as: video playback,
storage, backup etc.
The microSD card utilises “Edge Recording”. This is when the camera records video directly onto the
installed card in the camera, instead of a separate NVR or storage device. This gives the user more
flexibility in recording video.
