About this guide
In order to limit our paper consumption and as part of our environmentally friendly
and responsible approach, Parrot prefers to put user documents online rather than
print them out. This simplified guide to the Parrot Zikmu Solo is therefore limited
to providing you with the main instructions that will make it easy for you to use the
device. More information can be found on the support section of our website,
www.parrot.com: the full manual, FAQs, tutorials, and more.
