Please take note of the following guidelines when using your Stealth 2 camera:

• The camera is 1.2m shock resistant, but not shock proof—please take care of your camera and accessories, mounting and storing them securely. • For your safety, do not press the buttons on the camera during sports activities • Do not store the camera anywhere prone to dust or damp for extended periods of time. • Do not leave the camera exposed to extremely high temperatures—such as under direct sunlight—for extended periods of time as this may affect the camera housing and internal components. • Clean the lens and screen with a micro fibre, antistatic cloth to remove fingerprints or dust—no cleaning chemicals are required. • The camera has a working temperature range of -10°C to 40°C (14°F to 104°F). • Power off the camera before removing the memory card as stored data may be damaged if it is removed or inserted while the camera is powered on. • Remove the memory card before storing the camera for long periods of time. Weather resistance The Stealth 2 is engineered to be resistant to dust, snow, rain and splashes. The camera is NOT waterproof without the waterproof case. • Operating the camera at temperatures below 0°C reduces battery life and lowers battery performance. • Do not charge the battery at temperatures below 0°C. • Clean off any salt water or dirt from the camera immediately and prior storing. • Do not subject the camera to a sudden impact of water—the camera should always be used in the waterproof case under intensive water-based applications. Attention ! Rechargeable batteries are only to be charged under adult supervision. ! DO NOT open, puncture or otherwise damage the internal rechargeable battery, or dispose of it in fire. ! DO NOT attempt to open the camera body or disassemble for any reason. This will instantly nullify the standard warrnty, and risks damaging the internal battery. ! Optimal Camera Storage We recommend users store cameras for a minimum of 6-12 hours with the Back Hatch open, in less then 30% humidity. Never open the Back Hatch in damp or humid conditions if possible. Disclaimer Drift Innovation will not, under any circumstances, be responsible for injuries or property damaged incurred during participation of any high-risk sport or activity not endorsed or recommended by Drift Innovation. Remember that the warranty will only cover manufacturing defects.

Using The Camera

Initial setup 1. Unscrew the rear hatch of the camera by hand. 2. Insert a micro SDHC card into the card slot, as above, until you hear a click 3. Connect the camera by the micro USB cable (provided) to a powered USB port and charge for at least 4 hours before first use, until fully charged. 4. Replace the rear hatch, ensuring the arrow indicator points to the camera face with the control buttons. Powering on and off Press and hold the ACTION button on the camera—the LED indicator and screen will power on and display a welcome message. To power off, hold the ACTION button for 3 seconds, or until the LED indicator and screen power off. Charging 1. Connect the micro USB cable to the port at the rear of the camera and then to a powered USB port in your computer, other USB device or USB power adaptor (not included). ! If connected to a computer, the camera screen will show a USB symbol ! If connected to a USB power adaptor, the screen will show ‘Charging...’ 2. A full charge takes around 4 hours (min 1A)—once the camera is fully charged, remove the micro USB cable and replace the rear hatch and screw closed Battery life At a temperature of 25°C (77°F), with all power saving features off and the camera recording continuously, the battery will last for about 3 hours (1080p 30FPS, Wi-Fi off), on a full charge (see Conserving Battery Life, p18). Using an external power supply The camera can be powered by an external power supply such as a USB power adapter, Drift Power Pack or Drift 12V Charger. We recommend you power off your camera before plugging into any external power supply. Press the ACTION button to begin normal usage when using an external supply. If the external power is cut off for any reason during recording, the camera will immediately start drawing power from the rechargeable battery instead and continue recording, protecting your footage from file corruption. Selecting a micro SD card The Drift Stealth 2 is compatible with Micro SDHC cards of up to 32GB, and of Speed Class 6 or above. We recommend Class 10 cards for recording HD video and system stability. Below is a table of approximate video recording times against card size.
