For wall or ceiling mounting, first remove the mounting plate by sliding it down to unhook it. Secure the mounting plate to your chosen surface using the provided hardware. Once the plate is installed, slide the camera onto the mounting plate and adjust the camera angle to your preference.
Power and Safety
The device does not have a dedicated on/off button. To power it down, simply unplug the power cord from the electrical socket. Use only the accessories supplied with your device; third-party accessories may impact performance or cause damage. Ensure the power outlet is easily accessible. Do not plug multiple devices into the same wall socket to prevent overheating and fire hazards. If the power cable or adapter appears damaged, discontinue use immediately.

Keep the device clean and free of dust. If you encounter issues, ensure the power connection is secure and the device is within range of your Wi-Fi network.
