PREPARATION
SELECT A POWER SOURCE
The camera was designed to be powered by an internal
rechargeable battery by means of an integrated solar panel.
This power source is generally sufficient for the proper
operation of the device.
It is recommended to charge the internal battery for 24 to 48 hours
before the first use.
Plug the 12 V USB cable in the 12 V socket under the camera.
Then, connect the other end of the cable to the USB port of
your computer or to a 5 V wall socket charger (not included).
When charging via the 12 V USB cable (included), make sure
the camera is turned OFF and the solar panel is covered or
facing down so that it does not interfere with the USB charging
process.
While the camera is in use, if the internal battery charge becomes
insufficient, the camera will go into standby mode. Once the
solar panel has recharged the battery, the camera will restart
by itself with the same mode and configurations as before.

ENGLISH
OPTIONAL POWER SOURCES
If the user configures the camera in a way that requires a lot
of power, or installs it in a space with little ambient light, or
simply for safety, it is recommended that you consider using
a secondary power source.
When the internal battery charge becomes insufficient,
the camera automatically connects to the available optional
power source.
Three types of power sources are available to the user:
1. 8 AA batteries inserted in the battery compartment.
Make sure to insert the AA batteries according
to their polarity (+) and (-).
Alkaline or lithium batteries

ENGLISH
FOR MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE AND WITHOUT LEAKING BATTERIES
• Use new batteries.
• Use ONLY alkaline or ONLY lithium
batteries.
• Do not mix new and old batteries.
• Do not use rechargeable AA
batteries, as their lower voltage
may cause operating difficulties.
2. An external 12 V battery (#BATT-12V
sold separately) plugged into the
12 V socket on the bottom of the
camera, behind a protective rubber
cap.
3. A rechargeable lithium battery pack
#LIT-09 (sold separately), to insert in
the camera's battery compartment.
The camera was designed to draw its energy in the following
priority order (in case all 3 power sources are available):
• 12 V battery plugged in the 12 V camera socket.
• Internal battery.
• AA batteries/lithium battery pack.
For more information about the different power sources
for your camera, please refer to the User Manual at
