Charging the battery:

Foxit eSlick is powered by a rechargeable battery. The full performance of a new

battery is achieved only after two or three complete charge and discharge cycles.

We recommend charging your eSlick for 3-4 hours or until the LED indicator

turns off. Charging the eSlick is required before using it for the first time. To

charge the battery, please do one of the following:

Connect the eSlick itself to a computer via the USB cable.

Plug the USB cable into the AC adapter and then plug the small end of the

cable into the eSlick device. Connect the AC adapter to the circuit to start

charging.

While the eSlick is charging, the LED indicator located at the top of the device

emits a red light. Once the battery is fully charged, the LED indicator will go off

indicating that the eSlick has been fully charged. To verify the remaining battery

power, please check the battery icon at the top right corner of the screen.

Notes:

When the battery charge level is too low for operation, the eSlick device will switch itself

off.

You cannot operate eSlick while charging the device with a computer. The eSlick device

will go into a “sync” mode and will be waiting for files to be transferred via the computer.

Using the SD card:

The SD card slot on top of the eSlick enables you to insert an SD card to extend

the storage capacity of your eSlick device.

To insert or remove the SD card, follow these steps:

1. Hold the eSlick with the screen facing you, and hold the SD card with the label

on the SD card facing you.

2. Insert the SD card into the SD card slot. Hearing a click means the card has

locked into place.

will hear a click when the SD card pops out.

Foxit eSlick supports Standard SD Cards (whose capacities range from 4 MB to 4 GB) and

Be sure to insert the SD card in the correct direction. Forced insertion may damage the

slot.

Do not insert an incompatible memory card or a deformed memory card.

damaged.

To turn your eSlick on, press and hold the power button for 1 second or until

the screen starts flashing.
