• pebble begins to make a “beeping” sound
When battery is getting low the unit will start
beeping every 13 seconds. The beeping rate will
increase every minute until it beeps at a maximum
warning rate of once every 3 seconds. Pebble will
turn off about 15 minutes from the time it starts
beeping. It is recommended to charge the battery
when the unit starts beeping. (page 20)
• pebble is displaying “Charge Battery”
10 minutes after the beeping starts a CHARGE
BATTERY warning will show on screen for 4
seconds in intervals of every 15 seconds. It is
recomended you charge your Pebble immediatley
or it will shut off.
• Unit becomes warm to the touch
Your Pebble integrates a camera, LCD and battery
charging unit inside a small very package, but is
designed to be completely safe and does not pose
a risk of fire or damage. It is normal for the Pebble
to become warm (sometimes, very warm) after ex-
tended periods of use. However, this is completely
normal and does not indicate a malfunction.
