During setup, the Arlo app uses the cellular network to find your Arlo Go camera so that you can add the camera to your Arlo account. After setup, the Arlo Go camera uses the cellular network to send recordings to the cloud storage associated with your Arlo account. For best results, NETGEAR recommends placing your Arlo Go camera in a location where it has at least three bars of LTE signal strength. If your Arlo Go camera is in an area with consistently low LTE signal strength (two bars or less), you might experience these problems: You are sometimes unable to view your camera live, or the video stream fluctuates. You are sometimes unable to watch recorded videos right away. Notifications are sometimes delayed. Your battery depletes more quickly than usual because your camera spends so much time attempting to reconnect to the network.DRAFT 13Set Up Your System Arlo Go Camera PositionWhen placing your Arlo Go camera, keep these tips in mind: Avoid placing the camera in an area that gets a lot of light shining directly into the camera lens. You can configure Arlo Go cameras to monitor part of the field view and to detect motion only in the areas that you want monitor. Keep active locations in the cameras field of view. Arlo Go provides a 130-degree viewing angle. Position your camera so that the space you want to monitor is within the cameras field of view. Aim with the cloud. To help with placing your camera, do a live stream from the Arlo Go camera. Aim the camera while watching the video feed on your Arlo smartphone app to make near-real-time adjustments to the cameras position. For more information, see the YouTube video How to Install Arlo Go Smart Home Security Camera. Charge Your Arlo Go CameraThe Arlo Go battery is partially charged when it leaves the factory. You can charge your Arlo Go camera battery indoors or outdoors using the included water-resistant charging cable. Note: For safety reasons, your Arlo Go cannot charge at temperatures below freezing (32F, 0C). To charge the battery:1. Connect the power adapter to the camera.Caution: You must use an Arlo Go power adapter to charge the battery. Do not try to power the camera or charge the battery with any power adapter other than the one provided with the Arlo Go camera.2. Plug the power adapter into an electical outlet.DRAFT 14Set Up Your System The camera LED lights solid blue for two seconds when the camera battery is fully charged.Note: You can buy spare Arlo Go rechargeable batteries and charge them in the Arlo Charging Station (sold separately).

Use an SD Card With Arlo GoAll Arlo video recordings are stored to the cloud, but you can connect a Micro SD card to your Arlo Go camera and use the SD card as a second location to store Arlo Go recordings locally. Local storage on an SD card cannot be used on its own as a substitute for cloud recording. If you connect an SD card, the camera records to both the cloud and the SD card. If the camera is powered on but its LTE connection drops, the camera continues to record to the SD card. Your Arlo Go camera uploads all recordings to the cloud as soon as the camera reconnects. The Arlo app notifies you if the SD card is low on storage space or is full. If you select automatic overwrite, the oldest recordings are automatically deleted when available storage on the SD card is below 20%. Unrelated files that are not in the Arlo folder are not deleted by automatic overwrite.The following hardware is required: An Arlo Go camera An SDHC or SDXC Micro SD card with at least 200 MB of available space. If you are using best quality video settings, one hour of recordings is approximately 180 MB. You need more storage space if your Arlo Go is in a high-traffic area, your camera is set to record long video segments, or you do not want to use automatic overwrite. For more information about SD card types, see Supported SD Card Format on page 22.Supported SD Card FormatYour Arlo Go camera accepts Micro SD cards, SDHC or SDXC only, with up to 32 GB capacity, file format FAT32. For best performance, we recommend using class 4 or higher cards.
