Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up your device, simply insert 2 x 1.5v AA batteries into the designated compartment. Once the batteries are installed, the red light should begin its cycle. Choose a mounting surface that is flat and stable. Use screws to secure the camera bracket to your chosen surface, then tilt the housing into the desired angle. Maintenance is minimal: periodically wipe the exterior with a damp, lint-free cloth to remove dust or cobwebs, and replace the batteries every few months to ensure the LED indicator remains bright and effective.
