Card Installation & Removal
To install the micro SD card, raise the dust cover G 1 to expose the ports. Insert the provided micro SD card G 2 into the card slot G 3 . Push the card in until you hear a click.  The click will indicate that the card is secured in place.

The micro SD card will only fit one way into the slot, data pins towards the lens.
To remove the micro SD card, press the card in until you hear a click. Let go of the card so it protrudes further out of the slot. Now you are able to remove it from the slot.
Please note that the card system is only compatible with Microsoft Windows OS.

Accessing Footage
There are 2 methods to access the footage stored on the card. Directly off the card and via the use of the USB cable.
To access the card directly from the card you will need the use of a Micro SD card adaptor. Insert the micro SD card into the adaptor H 1 . Finally, insert the combined card into an SD card reader.

To access the card from the camera, connect the supplied charge cable H 2 to the mini USB port on the camera and the other end to a USB port on a PC or laptop.
Once connected using either method, the card’s root fold should automatically be displayed on the desktop of the PC or laptop. If not, it is possible to access the card through Windows Explorer.

Double left-click with the mouse on the folder icon named “DCIMA”. This folder will give access to all of the recorded video AVI files.

Double left-click on any of the AVI files to view it in your default playback application.
**** You are able to transfer files to a PC or laptop from the DCIMA folder with either the copy and paste or drag and drop functions.

Repairing The Micro SD Card
In the event that the micro SD card becomes corrupt or doesn’t play/record, try formatting the card. You can do this with either a micro USB adaptor or with the charge cable connected to a PC or laptop.
Once connected in either of the aforementioned methods, right-click on USB Drive-in Windows Explorer and select ‘Format’.

On the ‘Format USB Drive’ dialogue box, make sure FAT32 is selected.
Firstly try ‘Quick Format’ by making sure the check box is ticked and left- click on  ‘Start’. A warning box will show, left click to continue to format the card. This will take a few minutes to perform.

Disconnect the cable and turn the camera off once the formatting is completed. If you have formatted the card directly, remove the card once the formatting has completed, then insert the card into the camera making sure the camera has been turned off beforehand. When the camera is turned on the card will automatically be updated and ready for use.
**** If the card still presents issues, repeat the process, but uncheck the ‘Quick Format’ box. This will take much longer.

Setting Date/Time

Setting The Date & Time
In the root folder, there is a .txt file titled ‘SET TIME’ which contains a brief set of instructions for adjusting the date and time that is displayed in the footage.

In the root folder, double left click on the file titled ‘TIME’ to open it.

• Modify the first line ‘0’ to ‘1’.
• 0n the next line down, modify the line to the correct date and time using YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS format.
