6. Notes on Batteries and Rechargeable Batteries


The batteries in the surveillance camera only serve as backup batteries in case of power outage. They
ensure camera and PIR motion detector operation for approx. 1 hour.
Theoretically, rechargeable batteries can be used in the surveillance camera as well instead of batteries.
However, the lower voltage (rechargeable batteries = 1.2V, batteries = 1.5V) and the lower capacity of
rechargeable batteries will decrease the operating time.
Moreover, the rechargeable batteries are more temperature-sensitive than batteries. This will further
decrease operating time if the outdoor temperatures are low.
Therefore, we recommend using high-quality alkaline batteries only for the backup function.
If you want to use rechargeable batteries in spite of the above information, use NiMH batteries with a low
self-discharge only.
• Keep batteries/rechargeable batteries out of the reach of children.
• Ensure that the polarity is correct when inserting the batteries/rechargeable batteries (observe plus/+ and
minus/-).
• Do not leave any batteries/rechargeable batteries lying around openly. There is a risk of batteries being swallowed
by children or pets. If swallowed, consult a doctor immediately.
• Leaking or damaged batteries/rechargeable batteries can cause chemical burns to skin at contact; therefore, use
suitable protective gloves.
• Make sure that batteries/rechargeable batteries are not short-circuited, disassembled or thrown into fire. There is
a danger of explosion!
• Do not recharge normal batteries. There is a danger of explosion! Only charge rechargeable batteries which are
intended for this purpose; use a suitable battery charger.
• If not used for a longer period (e.g. in case of storage), remove the inserted batteries/rechargeable batteries. Old
batteries/rechargeable batteries can leak and cause damage on the product; loss of guarantee/warranty!
• Always replace the entire set of batteries/rechargeable batteries, only use batteries/rechargeable batteries of the
same type and by the same manufacturer with the same charge status (do not mix charged with partially charged
or empty batteries/rechargeable batteries).
• Never mix batteries and rechargeable batteries. Either use batteries or rechargeable batteries.
• For proper disposal of batteries and rechargeable batteries, please read the chapter "Disposal".
