Charging the Internal Battery

FotoChute contains an internal Lithium Ion rechargeable battery that
provides power to the product when it is being used to copy data from
your camera or other supported USB device. After the initial charging
cycle, it normally takes about one and a half hours to recharge fully.

Note: Please charge your new unit for 8 hours prior to connecting
it for the first time to a camera, flash disk, or memory card reader.

To charge the battery, follow these simple steps:

1. Turn the Power Switch to the OFF position.

2. Connect the AC Adapter to a wall outlet, and then to the DC

Input Jack on the side panel of FotoChute.

The display will indicate that the unit is charging and will display
current status using the battery icon. When charging is complete the
battery icon will show a full status.
