A BATTERY INSTALLATION

Installing the Camera Battery

1. Please unscrew the rear hatch of the camera (anti-clockwise movement).

2. Holding the camera with the LCD screen facing down, insert the battery with the

label facing upwards and the arrow pointing into the slot. Once gently pushed in all

the way, the battery will lock into place.

3. Screw the rear hatch of the camera (clockwise movement) back to its original

position.

4. To remove the battery if needed, push down the lever holding the battery in place.

The battery is spring loaded, and will slide out promptly.

Changing the Remote Control Battery

The remote control is supplied with a battery already installed, and is ready to use out

of the box. If the remote stops working, this battery can be replaced.

1. Using a small screwdriver, remove the four screws xing the remote control battery

cover.

2. Carefully remove the battery and replace it (model CR2032, presented as a coin).

3. Replace the remote control battery cover and the four screws.

B POWERING ON & CHARGING

Turning the Camera On

Press the SELECT button. The LCD screen will turn on and the LED will turn green. The

LCD screen will show the Drift logo, and the camera will enter Live Preview mode.

Turning the Camera O

To turn the camera o, press and hold the SELECT button for 3 seconds.

Note: The camera can be set to turn o automatically in order to conserve battery

power (page 19).

Charging the Battery

The Drift HD comes with a rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery which can be charged

with the included USB cable. Socket-to-USB adaptors can be used as well.

1. Ensure the battery is in the camera and the unit is powered o.

2. Insert the smaller end of the USB cable into the USB mini slot inside the camera.

3. Attach the other end of the USB cable to a USB port in your computer, or to a USB

power adapter (not included).

4. If charging via a computer, the LED will turn blue and the screen will go black. When

charging via a USB power adapter or a USB cigarette lighter adapter, the camera

should be switched o, or the battery will not charge.

5. To charge the camera, press and hold the SELECT button for 3 seconds. The screen

will turn o and the LED will turn blue, to indicate charging is in progress.

Note: Remove the battery if the camera

is not going to be used for an extended

period of time.

Note: Take care not to damage the

waterproof seal when replacing the

remote battery.

6. Once the camera is fully charged, the LED will turn o. Remove the USB cable and

close the rear hatch. It takes around 2½ hours to be battery to be fully charged.

Note: If the LED is does not turn blue, the battery is not charging. Please follow the

above instructions carefully to ensure that the LED turns blue and the battery does

actually charge.

Note: When charging the camera with a USB cable via a Mac, you may get an error

message about an incorrectly removed external device. This error message can be

safely ignored.

Note: The battery needs to be fully charged before its rst use.

Battery Life

At a temperature of 25°C (77°F), with all power saving features switched o, with the

LCD switched on and the camera recording continuously, the battery will last for

about 2.5 hours on a full charge.

In very cold conditions like -5°C (23°F), with all power saving features switched o,

the LCD switched on and the camera recording continuously, the battery will last for

about 1.75 hours on a full charge.

Note: Please see the Conserving Battery Life section on page 19 for details on how to

make the battery last longer.

Using an external power supply

The Drift HD can be powered by an external power supply such as a USB power

adapter, a battery kit or a cigarette lighter adapter. We do recommend you to power

o your camera before plugging your camera to any external power supply.

Note: Plugging an external power supply into the camera does not recharge the

battery unless you put the camera into charging mode (page 11). The battery will not

charge when the camera is switched on.

If the external power is cut o during recording (e.g. if the cigarette lighter adapter

comes loose), the camera will immediately start drawing power from the rechargeable

battery instead and continue recording, protecting your footage from le corruption.

Note: This feature will only work if the battery is charged. If using your camera with

an external power supply, we recommend charging the battery beforehand to ensure

your ﬁles are protected.

C CAMERA LENS ROTATION

A unique feature of the Drift HD is the rotating camera lens. In order to maximise your

mounting options, the lens can rotate through a total of 300°, allowing for an upright

image from even the most awkward positions.

Rotating the Lens

Whilst holding the camera body in one hand, use your index nger and thumb of your

other hand to grab the camera lens rmly. Twist the camera lens to the desired angle.

! When the low battery warning appears,

please recharge the battery. If the battery

runs out while recording video, the data

on the card may become corrupted. In

most situations, the camera will close the

video le and power o automatically,

but we cannot guarantee that the

footage on the card will not be lost

during an abrupt interruption of power.

! The camera lens can only be rotated

through a range of 300°. At either end of

this range, there is a hard stop. Do not

force the camera rotation past this point,

as you risk damaging the components. If

excess resistance is experienced, double-

check that you have not reached the

camera rotation stop.

! The camera is weatherproof and this

is not aected by the rotation of the

camera lens. However, do not rotate the

lens while the camera is wet or covered

in mud, as this may force liquid into the

body of the camera and damage the

components.
