GoPro Hero 5 Session - Manual (Page 36)

70 71
Your HERO5 Session ™ camera and battery are integrated. You cannot
remove the battery from the camera.
The battery icon displayed in the camera status screen blinks and shows
a battery low message when the battery drops below 10%. If the battery
reaches 0% while recording, the camera saves the file and powers off.
MAXIMIZING BATTERY LIFE
Extreme cold temperatures can decrease battery life. To maximize battery
life in cold conditions, keep camera in a warm place prior to use.
When you are not using HERO5 Session, rotate it in the frame so the
Shutter button is covered to prevent the camera from accidentally
turning on.
Note: To prevent the frame from marking the surface of your camera, leave the latch on
the frame open when storing your camera in a frame for a long period of time.
If the memory card becomes full or the battery runs out of power while
capturing video, your camera automatically stops recording and saves the
video before powering off.
WARNING: Using a wall charger other than a GoPro charging
device can damage the GoPro camera battery and could
result in fire or leakage. With the exception of the GoPro
Supercharger (sold separately), only use chargers marked:
Output 5V 1A. If you do not know the voltage and current
of your charger, use the included USB cable to charge the
camera from your computer.
BATTERY STORAGE AND HANDLING
The camera contains sensitive components, including the battery. Avoid
exposing your camera to very cold or very hot temperatures. Low or high
temperature conditions may temporarily shorten the battery life or cause
the camera to temporarily stop working properly. Avoid dramatic changes in
BATTERY
temperature or humidity when using the camera, as condensation may form
on or within the camera.
The integrated battery in the camera is non-serviceable. Contact GoPro
Customer Service for all battery related issues.
Do not dry the camera or battery with an external heat source such as a
microwave oven or hair dryer. Damage to the camera or battery caused by
contact with liquid inside the camera is not covered under the warranty.
Do not make any unauthorized alterations to the camera. Doing so may
compromise safety, regulatory compliance, performance, and may void
the warranty.
WARNING: Do not drop, disassemble, open, crush, bend,
deform, puncture, shred, microwave, incinerate, or paint the
camera. Do not insert foreign objects into any opening on the
camera, such as the USB-C port. Do not use the camera if it
has been damaged—for example, if cracked, punctured, or
harmed by water. Disassembling or puncturing the integrated
battery can cause an explosion or fire.
USING THE CAMERA WHILE CHARGING
You can capture video and photos while the camera is plugged in to a
USB charging adapter, or the GoPro Wall Charger or Auto Charger with
the included USB cable. (You cannot record while charging the camera
through a computer.) When you stop recording, the camera battery begins
to charge.
Note: Because the door is open, the camera is not waterproof during charging.
