IMPORTANT INFORMATION
The Concord Eye-Q VGA camera uses a type of memory that continually draws power to retain pictures
and/or video clips in the camera s internal memory, even when the camera is powered off. If the battery
power is depleted and you have not transferred your images to the computer, you will lose them. It is
strongly recommended that you transfer your images and/or video clips to the computer promptly, then
remove the batteries to preserve power.
If you have not transferred your pictures to your computer and your batteries are low, immediately
connect your camera to the computer via a USB cable (included). While connected to the PC, you
can change the batteries and transfer the images. If you attempt to change the batteries BEFORE
connecting to the PC, you will lose all files stored in the camera!
Always use fresh batteries and we strongly recommend you use NiMH rechargeable batteries (not
included) to optimize the performance of your camera.

is adopted in your country. In countries (such as USA, Canada, and Japan) with 110V power supply, 60Hz
should be used; whereas for countries (such as France and Germany) with 220V power supply, 50Hz should
be selected so as to optimize the camera s performance.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Be sure to read this information to ensure that you use your camera correctly.
Places to Avoid
Do not store or use the camera in the following places or locations:
•
•
Very humid, dirty or dusty places.
In direct sunlight or in places subject to extreme increases in temperature such as in a closed vehicle
during summer.
•
•
•
•
•
•
Extremely cold places.
Places subject to strong vibrations.
Places affected by smoke or steam.
Places subject to strong magnetic fields (such as near motors, transformers or magnets.)
Avoid contact with chemicals such as pesticides, next to rubber or vinyl products.
Do not expose the camera to sand. In sandy locations such as beaches or deserts, or in locations where
there is wind-borne sand, ensure that the camera is not exposed to sand. This can cause irrepairable
damage.
Storing the camera
If you do not intend to use the camera for a prolonged period of time, transfer the pictures from your camera
to your computer (if necessary), then remove the batteries before storing the camera.
Cleaning your Camera
Use a blower brush to remove dust from the lens and LCD surface, then wipe lightly with a soft, dust-free-dry
cloth. If any soiling remains, apply a small amount of lens cleaning liquid to a piece of lens cleaning paper and
wipe gently.
Do not scratch hard objects against the lens, LCD screen or viewfinder, as these surfaces can easily be
damaged. Clean the body of the camera with a soft, dust-free-dry cloth. Do not use volatile substances such
as thinners, benzine or insecticide, as these may cause chemical reaction with the camera s body, thereby
causing deformaties or removes the coating of the camera.
When traveling overseas
Do not place your camera in the check-in baggage. Baggage handling at airports may subject the camera to
violent shocks and the camera may be damaged internally even when no external damage is visible.
