SAFETY INFORMATION

CAUTION – RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK – DO NOT 

OPEN/DISASSEMBLE THE MOTORIZED ROLLER 

SYSTEM.

 

· Do not disassemble the device. Incorrect reassembly 

can cause electrical shock if the device is used again. 

 

· Do not immerse the device in water or other fl uids.

 

· Do not operate the device in a high humidity environ-

ment or very dusty environments.

 

· Do not attempt to tamper with, adjust or remove the 

battery and/or the electronics located below the rollers 

behind the device’s fi lm door.

 

· Do not attempt to remove the door itself as it is 

connected electronically to the body of the device. 

Doing so is unsafe, will likely damage your device, and 

will void your warranty.

 

· Do not insert metal objects into the product.

 

· Do not insert any objects into the rollers or gears.

 

· Keep small children and infants away from the 

device to avoid them being injured by the device’s 

moving parts.

 

· Do not use or store the product near any heat source 

or any type of equipment that generates heat, includ-

ing stereo amplifi ers. 

 

· Do not use the device near fl ammable or explosive 

gases.

 

· Do not charge the device if you notice any unusual 

odors, noise or smoke.

 

· Do not attempt to disassemble the fi lm’s battery or 

modify it in any way (if using 600-type fi lm). If battery 

fl uid gets into your eyes, immediately rinse your 

eyes with fresh cold running water and seek medical 

attention immediately.  

BATTERY AND CHARGER

 

· This device uses a custom Impossible lithium ion 

battery that is non-removable and mounted inside the 

camera body. No other type of battery can be used. 

Battery replacement can only be done by Impossible 

Service Centers. The battery will provide many years of 

service if properly used.

 

· Power consumption varies depending on the 

environment the device is used in and how the device 

has been stored. Used directly after full charge, the 

battery will power the processing of up to 15 fi lm 

packs with fl ash exposures, or three days of use on 

and off. Due to the high energy requirements of the 

fl ash, we recommend charging the camera before 

every session for best results. 

 

· Once the battery energy level falls below a certain 

level, the device will no longer process fi lm. The LED 

will blink and signal when it needs to be recharged. 

This is to avoid a photo getting stuck as it’s being 

processed through the roller system.

 

· The rechargeable battery is not fully charged at the 

time of purchase. Charge the battery fully with the Im-

possible USB charging cable (provided). This usually 

takes 1-2 hours (can vary depending on usage).

 

· The supplied USB charging cable has been tested and 

certifi ed to work with the Apple iPhone power adaptor. 

While it can be used in other USB ports, e.g. comput-

ers, USB power adaptors, TVs, cars etc., Impossible 

cannot guarantee correct operation.

 

· When the device is no longer in use, please recycle 

it properly.

USAGE ENVIRONMENT

 

·           The I-1 must be powered by direct current only.

 

·           Charge the I-1 using the USB charging cable 

provided in the camera box.

 

· To protect the high-precision technology contained in 

this device, never leave the camera in the following 

environments for an extended period of time: high 

temperature (+40°C/104°F), high humidity, places 

with extreme changes in temperature (hot and cold), 

direct sunlight, sandy or dusty environments such 

as beaches, damp places, or places with strong 

vibrations.

 

· Do not drop the device or subject it to severe shocks 

or vibrations.

 

· Do not push, pull or press on the lens.
