I) Camera Precautions
Water Resistant Feature
Notice the following guidelines when using your camera.
This ATC-2K camera is water resistant, but it cannot be used underwater. Oregon
Scientific will not assume any responsibility for malfunction of the camera caused by
water getting inside as a result of misuse by the user. The camera is water resistant and
is not damaged by water spray from any direction.
• ATC-2K is not shock-proof. You should avoid dropping it.
• For your safety, do not press the buttons on the camera during sports activities.
• Do not place the camera in a damp or dusty location for extended periods of time. This may
cause a fire or an electrical shock.
• Do not leave the camera in places subject to extremely high temperatures, such as under direct
sunlight for extended periods of time. This may affect the camera case and internal components.
• Clean the lens with a blower (typically a small device with a rubber bulb attached to one end that
you pump to produce a stream of air out the other end), or wipe it with a soft cloth in a spiraling
motion to remove fingerprints or dusts.
Observe the following precautions when using the camera.
• We recommend using Lithium batteries or Alkaline batteries with temperature between 32° F to
104° F (0°C to 40°C). It allows you to record your video for longer periods of time.
• The working temperature range of a normal Alkaline AA battery is 32° F to 104° F (0°C to 40°C).
Above or below this temperature may cause the batteries to malfunction. We recommend using
the lithium batteries which temperature is under 32° F (0°C).
• Turn off the camera before removing the batteries and the memory card. The card and the data
may be damaged if the SD is inserted or removed while the camera is still on.
• Remove the batteries and memory card before storing the camera for long periods of time, then
keep it in a well-ventilated place to prevent molding.
• Do not take video
underwater.
• Do not wash the
camera with water.
• Do not drop the
camera into water.
• Under the following circumstances, have the camera repaired by qualified personnel.
a) The plug is damaged or worn.
b) The device has been dropped and/or the casing has been damaged.
c) Liquid has entered the camera.
Precaution:
Follow the steps below to increase the water resistant of the camera
Step 1: Apply silicon grease (included)
Disclaimer: Oregon Scientific will not, under any circumstances, be responsible for injuries or
property damages incurred during participation of any high-risk sport/activity not endorsed or

Take out the o-ring and use your
fingers to gently rub on a thin layer
of silicon grease onto the surface of
the o-ring. The silicon grease needs
