Connecting to the computer:
when the device is switched off or on standby (constant
red light) connect the USB cable to the computer. When the computer has recognized
the camera a box will come up on screen asking how you would like to proceed. Please
be patient when waiting for device to be recognized by computer as it takes time
depending on the type of computer you’re using. If it takes too long, disconnect and
reconnect the device which should work.
Note: pressing buttons on the camera whilst it’s attempting to connect may damage or
interfere with the connection.
If this box doesn’t come up, left double-click on My Computer (on the front page of the
computer or Start > My Computer) and there should be a section for ‘Devices with
Removable Storage’
While the footage is transferring from the device to the computer, the blue light will
flash rapidly.

Charging:
when in charge mode the red light will be flashing, once it’s finished the light
will be constant.
Note: to ensure the camera is charging to its maximum capacity, for the first 5
charges, leave it connected for up to an hour after it’s fully charged (the light is
constantly red).
