PREPARING YOUR VIVICAM 3785
Installing the Batteries (Optional Accessory)
You may use 2 AA size batteries (either Alkaline or Ni-MH) to power your Vivicam
3785. Most often the Vivicam 3785 will be shipped with two AA alkaline batteries.
These batteries are adequate to power-up the camera and demonstrate its
functionality for a limited period of time. Alkaline batteries are not recommended
for long-term use or extensive photography, however. A better choice is re-
chargeable NiMH (Nickel-Metal Hydride) batteries. NiMH rechargeable AA
batteries offer considerably better life with the added advantage of cost-effec-
tive recharging. The Vivicam 3785 can also use CR-V3 batteries. CR-V3 Lithium
batteries are available in most stores where batteries are sold. Lithium batter-
ies offer considerably better longevity. Rechargeable CR-V3 batteries are also
available on the market.
To install or replace the batteries:
1. Make sure your Vivicam 3785 is off.
2. Slide the battery/SD card cover.
3. Insert the batteries noting the correct polarity marks (+ or -).
4. Close the battery/SD card cover. Slide into locked position.
Attaching the Camera Strap
To prevent accidentally dropping your Vivicam 3785 , always use the
camera strap.
Attach the camera strap as follows:
1. Thread the small loop of the strap through the strap eyelet on the
Vivicam 3785 .
2. Pull the large loop through the small loop until the strap is firmly secured.
