1 - Introduction
The Zingui is a portable dynamic display alternative communication aid that
allows recording and play-back messages easily. Symbols, pictures or other
visual objects represent recorded messages (or text-to-speech messages in the
Plus version) that the Zingui speaks out when selected via touch screen or
alternative access. The Zingui uses an adapted version of Mind Express to
achieve this. The Zingui Plus version also supports text-to-speech technology.
The Zingui has an integrated high performance microphone and high quality
audio channels to reproduce the recorded messages with high brightness,
minimal noise and sufficient volume.
The Zingui has a communication supporting function and is applicable for
people (from the age of 3 years) with a communication disability for general use
in their daily life. The user should have the mental and motor ability the use the
device. The Zingui should not be used for clinical, therapeutic or diagnostic
applications.
The Zingui can optionally be equipped with an infrared remote control module
that allows controlling for instance a television, a radio or any other device for
general use that can be controlled with infrared signals. The infrared remote
control unit of the Zingui should not be used for clinical, therapeutic or
diagnostic applications.
The Zingui is portable but it can also be mounted on a wheelchair. To ease the
portability and to additionally protect the device a carry case is provided with the
device.
Please read the user manual before starting to use the Zingui. The safety
precautions will help you to avoid misuse of the device.
Use the Mind Express 4 software to create files for the Zingui. The files can be
imported from the computer to the Zingui. For more information on how to use
the Mind Express 4 software see the Mind Express 4 manual.

2 - Safety and maintenance
2.1 Safety precautions
The Zingui is a light weight portable device. When using mobile, we recommend
to put the Zingui in its carry case and carry it in combination with the strap. This
will avoid that the device drops from your hands on the floor.
• When mounted on a wheelchair, make sure that the fixation is done
correctly and that the mounting of the Zingui is also locked on the
mounting system. This will avoid that the Zingui drops from its mounting
system due to shocks and bumps while driving.
• The Zingui has an internal Li-ion battery. Do not throw away the battery
after replacement. Follow the proper waste regulations of your state or
region. You can contact your local dealer or sent the used battery back to
your local dealer.
• In case the Zingui would be stored for a longer period, make sure that the
Zingui is completely powered off and that the battery is fully charged.
• Keep the Zingui away from high temperatures or do not leave the device in
spaces where it can be or become very hot (for instance in a car during the
summer). High temperatures can have a negative effect on the battery life.
• The Zingui is splash proof on top, but be aware that it has loudspeaker
holes at the back. Avoid dirt and moisture intruding the Zingui via the
loudspeaker holes, the microphone hole or the connectors. This can effect
the quality of the sound and the recording or it can cause bad operation of
the Zingui. Follow the cleaning instructions when cleaning the Zingui.
• The Zingui has a touch screen to make selections on the screen. You can
use your finger or a stylus. You do not need to press hard to make a
selection. Do not use a stylus with sharp edges because that could make
scratches on the screen.
• The Zingui has a desk stand to allow you to put and use the device upright
on a table. A little magnet in the housing of the Zingui keeps the desk
stand closed when not used. You should not use the desk stand as a
handle to carry the Zingui. It is not designed for that purpose and it could
come loose so that the Zingui would drop on the floor.
• The Zingui has an internal high performance microphone to make
recordings. Depending on the adjustable output volume and the original
volume of the recorded message, the reproduced message can have a
high volume. Be aware of this when making and playback recordings,
speak at a normal sound level.
2.2 Cleaning instructions
We advise to clean the Zingui regularly to give germs no change to spread.
Switch off the Zingui and unplug the power adapter before cleaning.
If possible use dry cleaning with a soft cloth. Local spots on the housing can be
cleaned with a slightly moistened cloth. Do not use aggressive cleaning agents.
Take care that no moisture soaks into the housing via the loudspeaker holes, the
microphone hole or the connectors. Use a little swab to clean the connectors.
Avoid cleaning the touch screen with paper towels, they can produce little
scratches. Use a dry and soft lint-free or micro fiber cloth with, if necessary,
some distilled water. Make sure the cloth is damp but not wet. Another option is
to use a screen cleaner kit that is specially designed for cleaning computer
screens. You can find these kits in computer stores. Do not press too hard on the
screen but wipe softly in circles.

For cleaning the carry case you should again try dry cleaning with a cloth or
brush. If spots are persistent use a slightly moistened cloth. Avoid using
aggressive cleaning agents.
2.3 The carry case
The carry case allows you to carry and use the Zingui safely. The carry case will
also protect the Zingui from dirt, moisture, shocks and bumps.
Use the carry case in combination with the strap to avoid that the device can
drop from your hands on the floor. You can attach the strap to the opposite
corners of the carry case so that the Zingui can be positioned horizontally and
operated with one hand.
The carry case consists of two parts that are closed with a zipper. Make sure
that the zipper has been closed correctly to avoid that the Zingui drops out of its
carry case.
The carry case has a second zipper on the back. Opening that zipper allows to
use the desk stand while the Zingui is in its carry case. Keep that zipper closed
though, when you are not using the desk stand.
