Your VholdR battery will have some juice out of the box, but we recommend a fresh
charge before recording your first adventure. VholdR is designed to charge directly from
your computer via the included USB cable.
Open VholdR’s back door and connect the USB cable.
Connect the other end of the USB cable to your computer.
USB input: 5V 500mA
Note: The VholdR will charge fastest while not powered on.
VholdR’s charging indicator light (located inside the back door) will be red when the battery is charging.
The battery indicator light will turn green once the VholdR is full charged provided the
VholdR is powered off while charging. The battery will take about 4 hours to full charge.
Your VholdR uses a rechargeable Lithium-Ion, 3.7V, 900mAh battery. Do not use batteries
other than those specifically designed for the VholdR. Use of any other battery may
present a risk of fire or explosion.
Note: A VholdR wall charger is available as an accessory at www.vholdr.com
To open VholdR’s back door, place your thumb at the
bottom of the door and gently push upwards.
Your MicroSD memory card is already in place. press on
the card until you hear a gentle click and the top of the
card has ejected.
Note: VholdR only supports up to a 2GB MicroSD card
(non-HC format)
To insert the battery, align the plus sign (+) on the
camera with the plus sign (+) on the battery and insert
the gold contacts first. Hold the battery tab away from
the opening to allow enough space for the battery to
slide into place. Slide the tab over the top of the battery
and ensure it is resting in one of the grooves on top of
the battery.
Note: It is important that the battery clip is firmly engaged to
secure the battery in place.
Close the back door by aligning it slightly above the
body of the camera and then sliding downward until it
locks into place.

‘Stop’ position by sliding the top record switch all the
way back against the rear door.

computer until the unit is fully booted. (Approximately 15
seconds).
Press and hold the power button until the status lights
on the back light up, then release.

The rear two lights will stay amber for about 10
seconds.
Next, the lens lasers will turn on for about five
seconds as the back two indicator lights turn off.
CAUTION: DO NOT stare directly into the laser beams.
Finally, the lasers will turn off and you will hear a
beep.

The red power light will remain on to indicate the
VholdR is on and ready to go.
