Connect the camera to your PC/Mac using

the USB cable provided. Do not use force

or attempt to insert the connectors at an

angle.

The power indicator LED will start blinking

either green (when charge is low) or red

(when charge is extremely low) to indicate

that the camera is charging.

Charging is complete when the power

indicator stops blinking and turns solid

green.

Turn off the camera by setting the mode

dial to OFF position. Gently rotate the hand

crank clockwise as shown in the figure.

Maintain a speed of 30 to 60 rotations per

minute (rpm). The camera can take one

picture for every 5 to 7 rotations. But it is

better to rotate about 40 times so that

multiple photos can be taken.

Warning: Rotating the hand crank at less than 30rpm will not charge the battery fast

enough. Also, if you try to rotate faster than 60rpm and by applying greater force on

the hand crank, you may damage the gear box.

Using hand crank

Before you start using the camera, you will have to charge the battery. There are two

ways to charge the battery: using a USB charger or using the hand crank. We suggest

you use the first method whenever possible, and reserve the second method for

when you do not have access to a computer.
