SETUP – THE FIRST STEPS
Removing her from the box
Please take a photo as soon as the box is open, before you take her out. We’d like to see how
she arrives. What’s your first impression before and just after you open the box?
Once you carefully open the box, grab CAIA with one hand on the base and the other on the
arc (not where the sensor is placed) to lift her up.
The removable base will also be in the box and is easily fitted onto the bottom of CAIA.
Charging & placement
When CAIA will arrive to you, she will need to be charged before use.
Place her in a sunny spot in your home, with the solar panel facing the sun, for at least a day.
As long as the solar panel faces the sun regularly (even indoors), you won’t have to worry
about her running out of power.
It is likely this spot will also be the place where you want to keep her in your home since, to
be able to use her, she will need to be under direct sunlight anyway.
Pointing
Make sure that CAIA has direct access to sunlight and that the spot where you want the light
to travel to (inside your home) is a straight line from where CAIA is sitting.
Use the pointer to tell CAIA where you want the light to go.
It is advisable to point the light towards the ceiling or where the walls and ceiling meet. How
well or how much the light will then diffuse within the room will depend on the color and
texture of the surface receiving the light.
