• The camera will scan for known devices and automatically
establishes a connection.
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 excessive power consumption.
• A third-party device can – provided is 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
• Only activate this function just before you want to use it.
• Disable the function as soon as it is no longer needed.
