Quick Start Guide

WARNING
All packing materials, such as tape, plastic sheets, packaging locks, removable tags, cable ties, cords, and packaging screws, are not part of this toy and should be discarded for your child's safety.

NOTE

Please save this Instruction Manual as it contains important information.
The battery in this product must not be disposed of with household waste. This battery is recyclable. Please follow your local recycling regulations.

WARNING
Prolonged wearing of any watch can cause skin irritation for some people. Clean the watch band regularly by wiping it with a damp cloth. Be careful not to get the watch wet, as this could damage the unit. Do not use soaps or household cleaners, as they can get trapped under the band and irritate the skin. Always dry the band before putting it back on. Irritation can also occur if the band is too tight or too loose. If redness, swelling, itchiness, or any other irritation occurs, remove the watch and consult a doctor.

GETTING STARTED

MASTER POWER SWITCH
When you use KidiZoom® Smartwatch DX4 for the first time, slide the Master Power Switch (located on the underside of the watch) to the On position, using a small tool such as a paper clip if necessary. Fully charge the watch before first use.

A full charge will take about 3 to 4 hours.

When the Master Power Switch is set to the Off position, the unit will not function, and the battery will not charge. Only move the switch to the Off position if the watch will not be in use for an extended period of time.
Note: It is not necessary to switch off the watch in daily use. Once the Master Power Switch is off, the watch will stop functioning. After it is turned on again, the time and date will have to be reset.

BATTERY RECHARGING

Note: Adult operation required.
The watch should be fully charged before first use. To do so correctly, please follow these steps:
- Make sure that the Master Power Switch is set to the On position before charging.
- Pull up the rubber cover of the Micro-USB Port on the side of the watch.
- Insert the included Micro-USB Cable (small end) into the Micro-USB Port on the watch.
- Insert the large end of the Micro-USB Cable into a USB port on your power adapter.
- Once the connection is successful, you will see a battery recharging symbol appear on the watch screen.
- Check the charging progress regularly throughout recharging.
- When the battery is fully charged, a check mark will appear on the battery icon, and then the screen will automatically turn off. You may then disconnect your fully charged watch from the power adapter.

BATTERY LIFE

The time the battery lasts between charges depends on the play. Like other electronic devices, more frequent usage will drain the battery more quickly. Some activities are more demanding on the battery, such as the pedometer and taking photos, and videos. The remaining battery capacity will appear in the top right corner of the Home menu screen. When the battery level is low, recharge the battery before further use. When the battery level is too low, the watch will not turn on until it is recharged.

Battery Times for Reference

Note: The above battery time assumptions are based on the screen display set to turn off when not in use. Please see the Settings section for more details about this option.

Battery Maintenance

Charge the battery regularly to keep it operating at optimum performance, even when the watch isn’t regularly in use. For example, charge the watch at least once every six months. Slide the Master Power Switch to the Off position if the watch will not be in use for an extended period of time.
