Note:
1. Peel o lm from the camera before use.
2. Charge the battery using the USB cable in the package. Inappropriate cables may result in slow
charging or failure to charge.
3. Warning: Do not tear o the silicone part by force as it may aect the waterproof performance.
4. When you plug in the USB charger, the LED should blink amber quickly for 3 seconds. If not,
make sure the power is running and check your connection.
5. Keep the ports rmly covered when not in use to ensure waterproof performance.
6. The camera may not power up after falling. Plug in the USB charger to power it on again.
7. Check the battery status on the Tapo app after setup.
1. Get the Tapo app from the App Store or Google Play, and log in.
The battery comes partially charged. We recommend that you fully charge
the battery before use. This will take about six and a half hours.
2. Open the cover, then press and hold the power button (left) on your
camera for about 3 seconds to turn it on.
Open the Tapo app, tap the button in the app, and select your model.
Then follow the app instructions to set up your camera.
1. Avoid placing behind glass. Glass will obstruct the motion
sensor of your camera.
2. Choose a proper location to mount your camera, or it will be
triggered too often by false alarms.
• Avoid pointing the camera directly at swaying trees.
• Avoid pointing the camera directly at vehicles and pedestrians on
the road.
• Avoid pointing the camera directly at street lamps and sunlight.
5. Mount your camera to the side so that movement goes across the
lens’ eld of view to better trigger motion detection and AI detection.
*Do not mount facing the
direction of movement.

6. For optimal detection performance, we recommend mounting
the camera 8-10 ft (2.5-3 m) above the ground.
The position and tilt angle of the solar panel greatly aects the solar
eciency.
1. Choose a location where the solar panel gets the most sunlight
throughout the year. Regularly wipe the panel to remove dust and
debris.
2. Position the panel south-facing in the Northern Hemisphere or
north-facing in the Southern Hemisphere. The recommended tilt
angle between the panel and the horizontal ground is 35° ~ 45°.
