To ensure safe operation of the device, follow the safety guidelines set out below:

■ Check the device for visible external damage before use. Do not use a device that has been

damaged or dropped.

■ If the cable or connections are damaged, have them replaced by authorised specialists or

Customer Service.

■ This device may be used by children aged 8 years and above and by persons with limited

physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, provided that

they are under supervision or have been told how to use the device safely and are aware of

the potential risks. Children must not play with the device. Cleaning and user maintenance tasks

may not be carried out by children unless they are supervised.

■ DANGER! Do not allow children to play with the packaging material! Keep all packaging

materials away from children. There is a risk of suﬀocation!

■ Do not allow children to use the device unless they are being supervised. Children are not

always aware of potential hazards.

■ DANGER! Some of the supplied parts can be swallowed. If a part is swallowed, seek

medical advice as soon as possible.

■ When attaching the device, ensure that it is ﬁrmly ﬁxed in place and cannot fall down and

injure somebody.

■ Never open the housing of the device. There are no parts inside the device which can be

maintained. All repairs must be carried out by authorised specialist companies or by the

Customer Service department. Improper repairs may put the user at risk. It will also invalidate

any warranty claims.

■ Repairs to the device during the warranty period may only be carried out by a customer service

department authorised by the manufacturer. Otherwise, no warranty claims will be held for any

■ The device is designed for outdoor use and is protected from drips and splashing water.

The device can be submersed to a maximum of 3 metres for up to 20 minutes.

When using the device underwater, make sure that the battery compartment and the side

compartment are completely closed.

■ Check the rubber seals of the battery compartment and the side compartment for visible

damage.

Check these every time before using the device underwater. Do not immerse the device in

water if the rubber seals are damaged.

■ Do not jump into water while holding the device. Immerse the device slowly.

■ Never operate the device in the direct vicinity of open ﬂames (e.g. candles) or in extreme

environmental conditions (e.g. in an explosive atmosphere).

■ The device may not be used in areas in which there may be a build-up of explosive gases,

e.g. petrol stations or similar.

■ Never subject the device to extreme heat or humidity. This applies especially to storage in a

car. If the car is stationary for long periods and the weather is warm and sunny, temperatures

of more than 50°C can arise in the car interior and the glove compartment. Remove electrical

Notes on batteries and rechargeable batteries

DANGER

Mishandling batteries can cause ﬁres, explosions, leakages or other hazards!

► Do not throw the batteries into a ﬁre and do not subject them to high temperatures.

► Never open, deform and short-circuit batteries as this can lead to chemical leakages.

► Check the condition of the batteries at regular intervals. Leaking chemicals can cause

permanent damage to the device. Take particular care when handling damaged or leaking

batteries. Risk of chemical burns! Wear protective gloves.

► Chemicals which leak from a battery can cause skin irritations. In event of contact with the

skin, rinse with copious amounts of water. If the chemicals come into contact with your eyes,

rinse thoroughly with plenty of water, do not rub and consult a doctor immediately.

► When inserting batteries, note the correct polarity (plus/+ and minus/−).

► If you do not intend to use the device for a long time, remove the batteries.

► During winter, store the replacement battery in a warm location, e.g. in your jacket pocket.

► Do not swallow the battery; there is a danger of chemical burns.

► The device contains a button cell battery. If this button cell battery is swallowed, it can lead

to serious internal burns within 2 hours that can lead to death.

► Keep new and used batteries away from children.

SWK 360 A1

DANGER

► If the battery compartment does not close securely, stop using the device and keep it away

from children.

► If you suspect batteries may have been swallowed or inserted into any part of the body, seek

immediate medical help.

► Do attempt to recharge non-rechargeable batteries. There is a risk of ﬁre and/or explosion!

Possible infringements of third party rights

Please note the following when using the camera:

Copyright

In principle, everyone owns the rights to their own image. According to copyright law, pictures of

people may only be published without their permission if the aﬀected person appears merely as an

incidental feature in a landscape or other location. The question as to whether a person is merely

an incidental feature must be ascertained on a case by case basis. To avoid any legal uncertainty,

a warning notice about the camera should be provided in all cases in which recordings that could

feature images of potentially identiﬁable persons are possible (see section "Duty of notiﬁcation").

Protection of privacy

The privacy of others may not be infringed by any published images. Do not set up the camera

so it points to the garden or an entrance of a neighbouring residence, even if these locations are

easily visible from your own residence or vehicle or to the general public. This does not a constitute

a right to publish these views.

SWK 360 A1

GB│IE│NI │ 9 ■

Personal determinability

Personal determinability exists when it can be established that a certain person was at a certain

location at a certain time. This identiﬁcation can be made by means of an identiﬁer related to a

speciﬁc person, e.g. a car number plate. Personal determinability of persons is to be avoided.

Surveillance cameras in the workplace

Surveillance in the workplace is subject to particularly strict legislation in Germany. Employers

should not use surveillance cameras in the workplace in situation where this could lead to a

possible infringement of legal rights.

Road traﬃc surveillance cameras

In the case of surveillance cameras directed at road traﬃc, it is recommended that the selection of

the location of the camera and the framing of the image is to be set up so that the road users can-

not be identiﬁed by means of the registration plates. Inscriptions/logos on vehicles may also serve

as a means of determination of the identity of a road user.

Duty of notiﬁcation

If it is not possible to preclude the identiﬁcation of persons, a notiﬁcation informing of the presence

of the surveillance camera must be placed at clearly visible locations on all access routes to the

area within the ﬁlming range of the camera. Pedestrians must also be informed that by entering

the ﬁlming range of the camera they hereby give their consent to be ﬁlmed/photographed and

if they do not do so then they should not access the aﬀected area. In this case, the voluntariness

of this consent must be taken into account. If the camera is located such that an aﬀected person

must pass by in order to reach a destination (e.g. at the entrance to a place of interest) then the

absence of voluntariness precludes the granting of an eﬀective consent.

The respective legal requirements of the land in which the camera is being used should always

observed to avoid possible infringements of the rights of third parties.
