a) Charging the battery
The battery must be charged before using the product for the first time.

flashes, charge the battery straight away. To charge the battery, follow the steps below:
• Move the sliding switch (3) to the "C" position.
Do not charge the battery when the scanner is turned on (position "O"), otherwise it will charge
using the power from your mobile device, which will drain your battery quickly.
• Connect the micro USB connector on a suitable mobile phone charger to the micro USB port (6) on the
side of the holder.
• Charging begins as soon as the USB power source delivers a current. The LED indicator (7) turns green
to indicate that the internal battery is charging. Depending on the remaining battery level, a full charge
takes 3-4 hours.
• The green LED indicator will turn off when the battery is fully charged.
• Move the sliding switch (3) to position "O" when the indicator turns off. The green LED indicator will turn on
briefly and you will hear a beep. The product is now ready to use.
b) Meaning of the LED indicator status (7)

• The green LED turns off. The battery is fully charged.
• The LED flashes red. Low battery
c) Setting up the device
• Store the barcode scanner in the holder. Insert the scanner into the USB connection on the top of the
holder.
• Peel the transparent film off the adhesive pad (8). If necessary, remove any protective covers or other
accessories from your mobile device. The scanner must be placed on a smooth surface on the device
housing. Place the holder on the back of your phone, ensuring that the hook sits over the edge of the
phone. Press the suction pads (9) and the adhesive pad firmly to secure both parts together.
• Remove the scanner from your mobile device when it is not required. The adhesive pad is reusable.

The barcode scanner can be configured to suit different usage scenarios. Use the following instructions
together with the quick start guide included with the product. The quick start guide includes all barcodes
that are needed to configure the scanner. Scan the desired barcode with the barcode scanner to apply the
corresponding settings. The configuration codes are printed next to each other in some places. Cover the
other codes (apart from the code that you want to scan) with your hand or a piece of paper. You can also
configure the barcode scanner before connecting it to a device. All symbologies are enabled by default.
You can disable individual symbologies as required.
• Turn on the barcode scanner by moving the sliding switch (3) to the "O" position.
