GETTING STARTED
Y ou may use 2 AA size batteries (either Alkaline or Ni-MH) to power you\
r ViviCam 3760.  Most often the ViviCam
3760 will be shipped with two AA alkaline batteries.  These batteries ar\
e adequate to power-up the camera and
demonstrate its functionality for a limited period of time.  Alkaline ba\
tteries are not recommended for long-term
use or extensive photography, however.  A better choice is rechargeable NiMH (Nickel-Metal Hydride) batteries.
NiMH rechargeable AA batteries offer considerably better life with the added advantage of cost-effective recharging.
The ViviCam 3760 can also use CR-V3 batteries.  CR-V3 Lithium batteries are available in most stores where
batteries are sold.  Lithium batteries offer considerably better longevity.  Rechargeable CR-V3 batteries are also
available on the market.
To  install or replace the batteries
1. Make sure your ViviCam 3760 is turned off.
2. Slide the battery/SD Memory Card cover.
3. Inset the batteries, noting the correct polarity marks (+ or -).
4. Close the battery/SD Memory Card cover.
Attaching the Camera Strap
To prevent accidental dropping of the camera during operation, always use
the camera strap.
Attach the camera strap as follows:
1. Thread the small loop of the strap through the strap eyelet on the camera.
2. Pull the large loop through the small loop until the strap is firmly secured.

Using the AC Power Adapter
1. Make sure your ViviCam 3760 is turned off.
2.Connect one end of the AC power adapter to the camera jack labeled
“DC IN 3V”.
3. Connect the other end to an electrical outlet.
Note:
Make sure to use only the AC power adapter specified for the camera. Damage caused by the use of an incorrect
adapter is not covered under the warranty.
To prevent unexpected auto power off resulting from no battery power left during the process of transferring your
images to the computer, use the AC power adapter as a power supply.

Using an SD Memor y Card (Optional Accessor y)
Y our camera comes with approximately 6MB of internal memory, allowing you to store images and video clips in
the ViviCam 3760. However, you can expand the memory capacity by using ta Secure Digital (SD) memory card
so that you can store additional images and video clips.
1. Make sure your ViviCam 3760 is turned off.
2. Slide the battery/SD Memory Card cover.
3. Insert the SD memory card. (Contact pins first)
If the card cannot be inserted, check the orientation.
4. Close the battery/SD Memory Card cover.
To  r emove the SD memory card, make sure your ViviCam 3760 is turned
off. Press lightly on the edge of the memory card and it will eject.
Note:
To  prevent valuable date from being accidentally erased from an SD Memory
Card, you can slide the write-protection tab (on the side of the SD memory
card) to “LOCK”.
To  save, edit or erase data stored on an SD memory card, you must unlock the
card.
Be sure to format your memory card in the camera before its initial usage.The ViviCam 3760, like most digital cameras will automatically use a memory
card if it is inserted into the memory card slot.  This is called “card preference”.
Data stored in internal memory will not be accessible if a memory card is
present.  To again access your data stored in internal memory, simply remove
the SD card.
