Battery Safety Information
In exceptional circumstances, batteries may leak fluids that can cause
a chemical burn injury or ruin your toy. To avoid battery leakage:
• Do not mix old and new batteries or batteries of different types: alkaline,
standard (carbon-zinc) or rechargeable (nickel-cadmium).
• Insert batteries as indicated inside the battery compartment.
• Remove batteries during long periods of non-use. Always remove exhausted
batteries from the toy. Dispose of batteries safely. Do not dispose of this
product in a fire. The batteries inside may explode or leak.
• Never short-circuit the battery terminals.
• Use only batteries of the same or equivalent type, as recommended.
• Do not charge non-rechargeable batteries.
• Remove rechargeable batteries from the toy before charging.

SD Card Installation
• Turn the battery compartment lock a ¼ turn with a slotted or Phillips
screwdriver. Open the battery compartment doors.

Hint: Once you have used an SD card in the camera, and put that same SD card

previously from our camera. To avoid mix-ups and disappointments, it’s best to
reserve a particular SD card for use only in the camera.
