What is
Q
Dock&Done?
Dock&Done is a total system that puts personal imaging into a single
process. For example, by simply setting the digital camera on the cradle,
new pictures are stored, photo printing is done and the camera’s batteries
are recharged.
Preparation
a

Inserting the battery and card
Unpacking the box contents
Charge the supplied battery before use.
Note
Do not open the battery/card cover, disconnect the AC adapter, or remove the camera
from the cradle while the camera is operating or communicating with a computer. Such
actions could destroy all the data on the card. Once destroyed, data cannot be restored.
Charging the battery

Set the camera on the cradle.
The mark on the camera connector dial indicates the orientation of the
camera when the camera is set on the cradle. Select the mark by turning
the camera connector dial according to the desired camera orientation.
