Important information
• Remote activation will activate the camera even if it was switched off via the main
switch.
• Accidental remote camera activation may result in unwanted pictures taken and high
power consumption.
• A third-party device can – provided it has been paired with the camera – access the
camera remotely if your own mobile device is not currently connected or its Bluetooth
function is deactivated. This poses a danger of unauthorized access to your data or
camera functions.
Solution
• Ensure that the function is disabled.
• Disable the function as soon as it is no longer needed.
