Charging the Battery
IMPORTANT:
The battery should be charged prior to using the Snow for
the first time. Connect the Power Adapter to the USB Port
and then insert the other end of the Power Adapter into the
power outlet. The Power Indicator will be a red color during
charging. When the battery is fully charged, the LED
Indicator will turn off.
During normal operation, if the battery indicator on the

3.5 hours. You can purchase an extra battery for long trips
or extended use.

Insert the small loop through the corner of the Zoomax
designed for the wrist strap. Pull the other end of the strap
