Important battery information

The Eye-Q Mini camera uses a type of memory that continually draws

power to retain the pictures in the camera’s internal memory even if

the camera is powered off. If the battery power is depleted and you

have not transferred your images to the computer, you will lose

them. It is strongly recommended that you transfer your images to

the computer promptly and then remove the batteries to extend their

life.

If you have not transferred your pictures to your computer and your

batteries are low, immediately connect your camera to the computer

via USB. While connected to the PC you can change the batteries

and transfer the images. If you attempt to change the batteries

before connecting to the PC, you will lose all files stored in the

camera.

Always use fresh batteries to optimize the performance of your

camera.
