This article describes how to remove the back cover of the Outdoor 4 and replace the batteries.

*The Outdoor 4 can be powered through its USB-C port using a weather-resistant USB-C adapter; however, once the USB port cover has been removed, the camera is no longer weather resistant until it’s been reinserted.

How to remove the back cover

To remove the back cover of your camera, use the included right-angle/adapter opening tool or large screwdriver.

1. Turn the screw to the left (anticlockwise) until it rotates freely.

2. Use the right-angle/adapter opening tool to gently pry in one direction, lifting the back cover.

How to install your batteries

Once the back cover has been removed, insert the batteries with the positive (+) and negative (-) poles aligned within the battery compartment.

Note: Blink cameras are only compatible with size AA 1.5-volt lithium non-rechargeable batteries.

How to replace the back cover

To make sure the back cover is placed correctly, a post is included in its design. The back cover only fits when the post is aligned with the keyhole on the camera.

1. Align the back cover’s post with the keyhole next to the camera’s USB port and push to close.

2. Use the right-angle/adapter opening tool, a coin or large screwdriver to turn the screw to the right (clockwise) about three turns until the back cover is flush with the camera.
