PRECAUTIONS  
1.  
Make sure the XS100’s back cover is twisted on and completely sealed before use.  
If foreign objects or water enter the camera, turn the power off. Continued use may  
cause an injury.  
2.  
3.  
If the camera has been dropped or its case has been damaged, turn the power off.  
Continued use may cause permanent damage and/or personal injury.  
There are no user serviceable parts in the camera: DO NOT DISASSEMBLE! Do not  
place the camera on unstable surfaces. This may cause the camera to fall or tilt over,  
causing damage. For repair, visit polaroidaction.com for customer service information.  
A camera is a precision instrument. Do not drop, strike, or use excessive force when  
handling the camera. Doing so may render the camera inoperative.  
Do not leave the camera in places where the temperature may rise significantly such  
as inside a car. High temperatures may adversely affect the case or internal parts of  
the camera.  
Before you move the camera, disconnect cords and cables. Failure to do so may  
damage the cords and cables.  
This is an extreme sports video product. Please be careful that you don’t mount the  
camera in a fixed position where, in the event of an accident, you subject yourself to  
bodily contact with the camera.

CHARGING THE BATTERY  
1.  
2.  
Connect the USB cables mini USB plug into the cameras mini USB port.  
Connect the cables USB plug into a USB port of any computer. Verify that the  
computer is on.  
3.  
4.  
5.  
6.  
The Red LED remains on while the battery is charging.  
The Red LED will turn off when the battery is fully charged.  
Charge the battery before using the camera for the very first time.  
It takes about 3 hours to initially charge the camera. Subsequent charges will take 3  
hours or less.  
Additional Information  
When the battery power is low, the camera will vibrate three times to indicate a low battery.  
The camera will vibrate two seconds to indicate it's out of power. If the camera is recording,  
it will automatically save the file and then shut down.  
DO NOT attempt to remove the internal battery. Doing so will void the warranty coverage  
and can possibly damage the camera.  
Insert Micro SD Card  
The XS100 supports MicroSD cards up to 32GB (Class 6 or greater cards are  
recommended). At the rate of 4GB per half-hour, a 32GB card will record full high  
definition (FHD) video for approximately 4-hours (1080p@30 fps or 720p@60 fps). If there  
is no MicroSD card in the camera, the Red and Green LED @will flash alternately and  
continuously.  
Check that the camera power is turned  
OFF. Insert a MicroSD card (with the  
printed side up) into the MicroSD Card  
Slot with enough finger pressure to keep  
the edge of the card flush with the card  
slot opening.  
To remove the Micro-SD card, press the  
card inward and release. Grasp the card  
with two fingers and pull it out.  
Never insert a MicroSD card with the  
printed side down. Forcing the card  
inward in that position will likely damage  
the card and/or camera.

Attaching The Camera Panel Cover  
The waterproof housing allows the camera to operate  
as deep as 30 feet under water. In order to protect the  
camera when using it in wet conditions, you must seal  
the cameras operation panel with the Panel Cover .

Attach the Panel Cover (Figure 1) to the back of  
the camera by positioning the Panel Cover Lock in  
the 12 o’clock position and rotate the outer ring of

upward in the direction of the arrow  
No. 2.  
3.  
To remove the Panel Cover, simply  
reverse the procedure in steps 1 and 2.  
*Failure to properly seal your camera can  
result in leaks that may damage or destroy  
your camera. Your warranty does not cover  
water damage resulting from user neglect.  
*The rubber seal on the Panel Cover forms  
the waterproof barrier to protect the camera  
in wet and underwater conditions. You must  
keep this seal clean; a single strand of hair or  
a single grain of sand can cause water to leak  
into the camera.  
*After every use in salt water, you will need to rinse the outside of the product and the  
seal with non-salt water, then dry. Failure to rinse off salt water can cause corrosion within  
the camera and, in turn, damage will result.

Tips for Achieving a Secure Mounting  
When straps are not practical, the 3M® adhesive pads can be used to attach the  
mount to smooth surfaces like a motorcycle helmet. And don’t worry about the  
adhesive ruining the helmet; they’re removed quite easily when heat is applied (eg.  
a hairdryer).  
For best results, maximum adhesion of the adhesive pad is achieved by first  
cleaning the helmet surface thoroughly where the pad will be attached. Apply the  
pad firmly and allow it to remain unused overnight. The dry time allows the adhesive  
to create a stronger bond.  
For ultimate camera support, use the straps and the 3M® adhesive pads.
