CHARGING THE DEVICES BEFORE USE
A charger is included in the case.
The Swivl is charged using Cable B and the Tablet
using Cable C.
The microphone must be placed in the Swivl
holder to charge.
You need to fully charge the Swivl, microphone and tablet before use.
Charging for around 3.5 hours will give around 2 hours of use.
If you do not completely charge all of the devices, then the system may not
record your audio.
