Ensure there are no particles or liquid (water, juice, etc.) in either of the connectors before plugging in either end of the cable. The device should be completely dry with no debris in the cable connectors when charging. Plug in the cable securely and in the correct orientation. It is important to keep the device, the cable, and the power adaptor in a well-ventilated area when charging. Do not charge your device on soft surfaces, such as on a bed or sofa or covered by clothes as they can trap heat around the device. Typical charging time is approximately 3 to 4 hours.

Like with other electronic devices, the more the camera is used, the quicker the battery will drain. The battery will last approximately two hours with continuous use while taking photos and videos. With typical usage, the battery will last longer. The remaining battery capacity will display in the top right corner of the screen. When the battery level is low , recharge the battery before further use. When the battery level is too low , the camera will not turn on until it is charged.
AUTOMATIC SHUT-OFF
To preserve battery life, the KidiZoom® Studio will automatically shut off after a few minutes without input. When recording videos or using the time-lapse video function, the camera will not automatically turn off until the process completes.

GREEN SCREEN BACKGROUND SETUP (INDOOR USE RECOMMENDED)
Some of the features of the camera use the included Green Screen cloth. Parental assistance is required to safely secure the cloth. Depending on your home environment, the Green Screen can be hung any number of ways: with clothes pegs, binder clips, books or weights, drawing pins and magnets are just a few ideas. Find a place to mount it where the camera can be positioned approximately three feet or one metre away, with room for your child to be safely in the middle. Hang the cloth so that the rougher side faces the camera. The camera's effects work best with even, cool white lighting and with as few wrinkles in the cloth as possible. For best results, make sure that there are no shadows or direct sunlight falling on the Green Screen cloth.
NOTE If you see the video flickering, please make sure your Indoor Light Frequency is set correctly in the camera's Settings menu. Please refer to the Settings section in this guide for details. Also, avoid having a direct light source pointing towards the camera.

KidiZoom® Studio FAQ
Q - Can I use my own Green Screen instead of the included cloth? A - Yes, you can. For best results we recommend finding a cloth that's
non-reflective and the same shade of green as the included Green Screen.
Q - What are the best light settings for the green screen effects? A - The green screen effects work best with even, cool white lighting.
Q - Can I use other pictures or videos as my own Green Screen background?
A - You can use your own pictures as Green Screen still backgrounds by selecting the Photo Background theme in Green Screen Studio. For best results, make sure the image is 1280 x 720 Baseline JPG, and transfer it to the DOWNLOAD/PHOTO folder of the camera from your computer. The camera cannot use external videos as backgrounds.
