SAFETY TIPS AND MAINTENANCE
Precautions for batteries:
• Use 2x AA batteries only.
• Dispose of the batteries in a manner that complies with applicable laws.
• Leakage, overheating, or burst batteries could result in fire or injury.
• Do not short circuit, heat or dispose of batteries in fire.
• Do not use old batteries with new ones, or mix brands of batteries.
• Ensure the batteries are positioned correctly with regard to polarity (+/-).
• Allowing dust to accumulate in the camera over a long period is hazardous and in extreme
circumstances may cause a fire. It is best to clean your camera prior to seasonal periods of
high humidity.
• Batteries may lose power if kept inside the camera for a long time without using. Please
remove the batteries while the camera is not in use.
• Do not use manganese batteries as they cannot supply sufficient power to support the
camera's operations. Batteries may not work normally under 32ºF (0ºC).
Precautions for SD Memory Cards:
• In the event of malfunction or damage, it is possible that data may be lost. Concord Camera
is not responsible in any way for such data loss.
• Do not touch the terminals with hands or metal objects.
• Keep dust, water and foreign objects away from the terminal section.
• Avoid heat, liquid and direct sunlight when using and for storage.
• Do not open the battery/card cover or remove the SD Memory Card while data is being read
or written.

(pictures (JPEG) or video clips (AVI) on the card. Doing so may prevent the camera from
working properly when deleting, etc.

computer or save files other than pictures or video clips taken by this camera onto the SD
memory card. Pictures or video clips that have been edited or added to the SD memory card
