B7. Place the dynamo into the camera body. Make sure the dynamo gear meshes
correctly with gear B. Don't try to rotate any of the gears as it may cause the
axle rods to pop out of their positions.
B8. Use the dynamo cover to secure the dynamo and the two axle rods in place.
B9. Fasten the dynamo cover with two screws, as shown above.
B10. Take the hand crank and push-fit its triangular notch onto the triangular head of
gear A of the gearbox.
B11. Fasten the hand crank onto gear A using three screws, as shown.
B12. Rotate the hand crank clockwise. If it does not rotate smoothly, one of the parts
of the gearbox may be misaligned. Carefully undo the previous steps and
reassemble the gearbox.
B13. Clip the white crank cap onto the hand crank so that it covers the three screws.
Before snapping the cover in place, make sure you have lined up the three tabs
on the cover with the slots on the hand crank.

C. Electronics
C1. Place the shoot button into the hole on the top face of the camera body. You will
have to insert it at an angle, as shown.
C2. While the shoot button is in the hole, rotate its arm clockwise until the arm slides
into the notch on the camera
C3. Pick up the PCB module and turn the mode knob to the position shown above.
C4. Insert the PCB module into the camera body. Make sure the pillars in the
camera body go through the holes in the PCB module.
C5. Fasten the PCB module onto the camera body using three screws.
C6. Now set the mode knob to the OFF position. It must remain in the OFF position
during the remaining assembly process.
C7. Find the connector attached to the pair of wires from the PCB that have the
same color combination as the wires from the dynamo. Hold the two connectors
in each hand and gently join them until they click.
C8. If you want to disconnect the wires, then press down on the smaller connector
and pull it out as shown above.

C9. Take the remaining connector from the PCB module and the connector from the
battery. Gently connect the connectors so that they click.
C10. Place the connectors from the dynamo and the battery into the space at the
bottom of the camera body. Make sure that the wires do not touch the gears.
C11. Now set the battery into the camera body as shown.
C12. Place the clear back cover on top of the camera body. Make sure the screw
holes on the cover align with the screw inserts on the camera body.
C13. Fasten the back cover with four screws.

D. Lens Wheel
D1. Take one of the four springs (two of which are extra) and one of the two locks
and insert the spring into the circular pit in the lock.
D2. Insert the free end of the spring into the small bump (purple circle) on the lens
wheel, as shown on the left. Now slowly push the lock to compress the spring,
as shown on the right. The lock will slide into the lens wheel and should snap
into its notch on the wheel.
D3. Use the same method to attach the second lock to the opposite side of the
wheel.
D4. Place the spring cover on top of one of the springs and push it in. The cover
should snap into the lens wheel so that it does not stick out of the wheel.
D5. Now cover the second spring with the second spring cover.

D6. Push-fit the lens wheel into the casing of the PCB module. Make sure the two
locks on the lens wheel align correctly with the two notches on the PCB module,
as illustrated by the blue and purple boxes.
D7. After you have attached the lens wheel, try gently rotating it in each direction. It
should snap into each of the three lens settings.
D8. Place the lens cover on top of the lens wheel so that the two screw holes on the
cover and the wheel are aligned. Make sure the tiny dot on the cover, shown
inside the green circle, is to the right.
D9. Then, fasten the lens cover with two screws.

E. LED Flash
E1. The flash module can be inserted into the PCB module in only one orientation.
The blue and purple boxes above can be used to match the tabs on the flash
module with the notches on the PCB module. Push the LED flash module into
the PCB module.
E2. Turn the LED flash module clockwise by about 30 degrees to lock it into the PCB
module. Even if the LED flash module feels loose, you can be sure it is
connected to the PCB module.
E3. The wrist strap has a tiny loop and a large loop. Squeeze the tiny loop together
and slide it through the eyelet on the side of the camera body.
E4. Pass the big loop through the little loop as shown on the left.
E5. Then, pull on the big loop to tighten the strap.
E6. Congratulations. You're done!

G. Charging the Battery
Before you start using the camera, you will have to charge the battery. There are two
ways to charge the battery: using a USB charger or using the hand crank. We
suggest you use the first method whenever possible, and reserve the second method
for when you do not have access to a computer.
1. Using USB charger
a. Connect the camera to your PC/Mac using the USB cable provided. Do not use
force or attempt to insert the connectors at an angle.
b. The power indicator LED will start blinking either green (when charge is low) or red
(when charge is extremely low) to indicate that the camera is charging.
c. Charging is complete when the power indicator stops blinking and turns solid
green.
2. Using hand crank
Turn off the camera by setting the mode dial to OFF position. Gently rotate the hand
crank clockwise as shown in the figure. Maintain a speed of 30 to 60 rotations per
minute (rpm). The camera can take one picture for every 5 to 7 rotations. But it is
better to rotate about 40 times so that multiple photos can be taken.
Warning: Rotating the hand crank at less than 30rpm will not charge the battery fast
enough. Also, if you try to rotate faster than 60rpm and by applying greater force on
the hand crank, you may damage the gear box.
