WELCOME
Thank you for purchasing the Polaroid
XS9
H D Action Camera. This
is
one
of
our smallest
cameras capable of recording 720p high definition video clips and
5MP
still images.
With
proper use and care, your camera will provide many years of service, allowing you
to
photograph life, both on land and
in
the water while standing still or moving. Its small size,
light
weight
and waterproof capabilities add up to one unique camera to help you expand
your photographic experiences.
Please take the time
to
read this manual carefully and keep it
in
a safe place for future
reference.
The screen displays and illustrations used
in
this manual may not be
an
exact representation
of your camera and
can
be
slightly different.
When using the touch screen
to
select your options please apply gently your finger direct
over the objects.

PRECAUTIONS
1.
Do
not expose the video camera to direct sunlight
by
pointing its lens directly at the sun.
The
image sensor of the video camera may
be
damaged.
2.
Take
good
care
of the video camera
and
prevent water or
sand
particles from entering the
camera; it's only waterproof when it's sealed
in
its waterproof
case.
When it
is
used
on
the
beach
near or
in
the water,
be
sure the camera
is
enclosed
in
its waterproof housing.
The
housing will protect the camera from getting
wet
and
will prevent sand particles
and
salt
vapor damage.
3.
Do
not store the camera
in
an
environment with excess heat, humidity, dust or chemical
materials.
4.
Battery life will
be
shortened if the camera
is
left unused for long periods of time
(in
excess
of three months). It
is
recommended that
you
turn the camera
on
for a minute or more
during long storage times to allow
an
electric current to
run
through the battery.
5.
If dirt accumulates
on
the camera and/or its lens, use a soft, clean, dry cloth to wipe it away
gently.
6.
Do
not touch the lens surface with fingers.
7.
This
camera uses a MicroSD flash
card.
You
may find that your finger alone cannot press
the
card
into its slot far enough for the
card
to lock
in
place or to push it inward enough to
3
POLAROID
XS9
USER
GUIDE
release
it.
Try
nudging the
card
with a fingernail or a miniature flat
blade
screwdriver.
8.
Protect
the memory
card
from electromagnet fields
and
do
not remove the
card
from its
socket if the camera or computer
is
reading
information from
it.
9.
Your
camera does not
have
a built-in memory.
Be
sure to install
a
MicroSD
or
MicroSDHC
(high
capacity)
card
in
the
card
slot.
10.
To
protect the camera from accidental
falls,
push
one
end
of a wrist/neck strap into the
lanyard
hole then feed it through the other
end
and
pull
securely.
CHARGING
THE
BATTERY
1.
Connect
the
small plug
of the
USB
cable
into the
USB
Receptacle
on
the bottom of
the camera; connect the opposite end into
an
available
USB
port of your computer.
2.
While
the computer
is
on,
the battery
will
charge
as
indicated
by
the Charging Indicator
Light.
3.
The
light
will
remain
on
during the entire charge
cycle
and
will
extinguish when
charging
is
complete.
4.
Typical charge times
is
artound 2 hours, depending upon the amount of pictures
and
length of time of
all
videos that
have
been recorded.
NOTE:
It
is
not necessary to
run
the battery down
completely before recharging.
The
built-in Lithium-ion battery
