This document will help you get started and answer common questions.

Revision 1.0 10-Oct-2012 4 of 19 2 Starting Up 2.1 CHARGING YOUR WATCH Your MetaWatch smartwatch system comes with a recharging clip that you can attach to the watch by squeezing the USB end to open the clip wider. The watch can then be inserted. There is a recessed area of the watch where the pin area of the clip will fit into. The clip should grip the watch snugly and securely, and both the top and bottom inside edges of the clip should be flush with the watch. Connect the clip to the watch, plug in the USB cable (a micro USB cable is supplied in the box for you) and plug the other end into a USB power supply. When the clip has power, the clips LED will turn on. The watch is designed to recharge from this micro USB port and also operate while charging. The micro USB socket and USB cable of the clip allows you to plug your watch into a USB hub or any 5V USB power source to recharge. Most car adapters and wall adapters that are made for mobile phones have 5V DC output and should be able to charge your watch. When connected to a USB port on a Personal Computer you will be able to update the software on your watch to the latest versions. Plug the watch in and let it charge to a full battery, which could take around 4 hours the first time. If your watch is charging from an empty battery, the watch should start running immediately after plugging in, it will not however continue to run while off of the clip until the battery has a sufficient charge. When the watch software is running, you should see a charging indicator turn on in the clock area after a several seconds.
