Operating Instructions
Finding Nearby Items
When your VOCOlinc Air Tracker Tag is within Bluetooth range (up to 200 feet without obstacles), you can use the 'Find My' app to make it play a loud sound (80-100 decibels). This helps you locate misplaced items like keys under a couch cushion.
- Open the 'Find My' app on your iOS device.
- Select the 'Items' tab and choose your VOCOlinc Tag.
- Tap 'Play Sound' to activate the tag's speaker.

Finding Far Away Items
If your item is outside Bluetooth range, the Apple Find My network, composed of millions of Apple devices, can help locate it. The app will show you the tag's last known location on a map and can provide navigation to its vicinity.
- In the 'Find My' app, select your VOCOlinc Tag.
- View its location on the map.
- Tap 'Directions' to get guided navigation to the tag's location.

Left Behind Remind and Lost Mode
To prevent losing your items, enable 'Left Behind Remind' for instant alerts if you leave your tag behind. If an item is lost, activate 'Lost Mode' in the 'Find My' app. You will be notified when any Apple device in the network detects your tag.
- To enable 'Left Behind Remind': In the 'Find My' app, select your tag, then tap 'Notify When Left Behind' and configure your preferences.
- To activate 'Lost Mode': In the 'Find My' app, select your tag, scroll down to 'Lost Mode', and tap 'Enable'. You can leave a contact number or message.

Privacy Protection

Maintenance
Battery Replacement
The VOCOlinc Air Tracker Tag is powered by a replaceable CR2032 coin cell battery, which typically lasts over 1 year. The 'Find My' app will notify you when the battery is low.
- To replace the battery, locate the small gap on the side of the tracker.
- Use a fingernail or a small tool to gently pry open the two halves of the tracker.
- Remove the old CR2032 battery and insert a new one, ensuring the positive (+) side faces upwards.
- Align the top holes of the two covers and press them firmly together until they click into place.

Water Resistance
The VOCOlinc Air Tracker Tag has an IP67 water-resistant rating, meaning it can withstand splashes, rain, and brief immersion in water. However, it is not recommended for prolonged submersion.
Troubleshooting
- Tag not found in Find My app: Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your iOS device and the tag is powered on. Try resetting the tag as described in the Setup section.
- Sound not playing: Check if the tag's battery is low and replace it if necessary. Ensure your iOS device is within Bluetooth range of the tag.
- Inaccurate location: The accuracy of location tracking depends on the density of the Apple Find My network. In areas with fewer Apple devices, location updates might be less frequent or precise.
- Left Behind alerts not working: Verify that 'Notify When Left Behind' is enabled for your tag in the Find My app settings. Ensure your iOS device has a stable internet connection.
