Attention Regarding Skin Irritation

ATTENTION: As with other objects worn close to the body for extended periods, the KidiZoom® Smartwatch MAX may cause irritation. Moisture, sweat, soapy water, or other irritants can accumulate under the bracelet and remain in contact with the skin. As a precaution, it is strongly recommended that children do not wear the watch during the night, remove it at the first sign of irritation, and keep the bracelet dry and clean. Also, ensure the bracelet is neither too tight nor too loose. If redness, swelling, or other irritation occurs, consult a doctor before re-wearing the watch.

Getting Started

TO START PLAYING...

For first-time use, move the Battery slider on the back of the watch to the ON position. When the Battery slider is in the OFF position, the watch cannot be charged or used. You will need to set the time again upon powering on.

CHARGING THE BATTERY

NOTE: Battery charging must be performed by an adult.

  • Ensure the battery is in the ON position before recharging. Lift the rubber cover protecting the micro-USB port on the side of the watch.
  • Connect the USB cable ends to the power source and the watch's micro-USB port.
  • While the watch is charging, the following image appears on the screen: [Image of charging battery indicator].
  • When the watch is fully charged, a checkmark will appear on the battery icon on the screen. Disconnect the power.

CHARGING PRECAUTIONS:

Use the provided VTech® micro-USB cable or a VTech AC/DC adapter 80-405149 (sold separately) connected to a device with a USB port (DC 5V/1A output) with the following mention: [Symbol 1] or [Symbol 2]. Do not charge with another cable. Before each use, check that the cable cord shows no cuts or exposed wires. Ensure the ends are free of residue or liquid (water, fruit juice, etc.). During charging, the device must be dry, and the cable ends must be clean. Connect the cable in the correct direction. If the device is on when connected to the computer, a window may appear on the computer screen asking for access to the drive.

Never leave the device unsupervised during charging. To prevent overheating of the connected device, avoid placing it on soft surfaces during charging. Full battery charge takes approximately 3 to 4 hours. Unplug the device when fully charged. Do not leave the device charging for more than 5 hours. This device cannot be charged with a wireless charger.

ERROR MESSAGES

  1. Battery Slider is OFF: Move the slider to the ON position before charging the watch.
  2. Excessive Thermal Amplitude: The temperature must be between 0 and 40°C.

BATTERY LIFE

Battery life depends on watch usage. Like any electronic device, frequent use drains the battery faster. Activities like the camera and video recorder consume more battery. The remaining battery level is indicated in the top right corner of the home screen. When the battery is low, charge the watch. If the level is too low, the watch will automatically turn off until fully charged.

Usage Battery Life
Reduced Usage 2 weeks
Classic Usage 2-3 days
Intensive Usage 1 day

Note: Battery life is based on usage with automatic screen dimming when the watch is not in use.

Disposal of Used Products and Batteries

  • VTech® toys are electrical and electronic equipment (EEE) that, at the end of their life, will be subject to selective collection for recycling. To preserve the environment, VTech® recommends removing and disposing of used batteries in designated containers, and then depositing the end-of-life toy at collection points in stores or in your community.
  • The crossed-out wheeled bin symbol on products and batteries or their packaging indicates that electrical and electronic equipment and batteries must not be disposed of with household waste, as they contain substances that can be harmful to the environment and health.
  • When Hg, Cd, or Pb symbols are indicated, it means the battery contains more mercury (Hg), cadmium (Cd), or lead (Pb) than the value specified in Directive 2006/66/EC on batteries and accumulators.
  • The solid bar under the crossed-out wheeled bin symbol indicates that the product was placed on the market after August 13, 2005.
  • Contribute to environmental protection by sorting your used products and batteries.
  • For more information on the collection and sorting of used batteries, visit http://www.corepile.fr.
  • For more information on sorting electrical and electronic products, contact our consumer service.

Water Resistance
