Installing the battery
For safety reasons, the battery is shipped with a very low charge and will need to be fully charged
prior to using the camera.
1. Place the camera with the touch screen facedown on a flat solid surface and unscrew the battery
cover and slide open.
2. Connect the battery to the connector within the camera and insert the battery so that the wires
are at the top.
3. Slide the battery cover on, taking care not to trap the wires.
4. Screw the battery cover down. iSTAR contains precision electronic circuitry. Never attempt to
disassemble the camera yourself.
Charging the battery

socket.
