LR03 in some countries) alkaline batteries, not included. Install new batteries as shown in the polarity (+/-) diagram inside the battery compartment. Navigating the CRAMMERTM Handheld The CRAMMER handheld has eight Home menu options. [. . . ] When you have finished transferring files onto and off of the CRAMMER handheld, click the Eject button to disconnect the handheld. Once ejected, a message will appear letting you know that it is safe to unplug the handheld from the computer. It is important to remember to use the Eject button before unplugging the handheld to avoid corrupting the device. Should you forget, the application will notify you if you need to reconnect your handheld to fix it. If you need to reconnect a CRAMMER handheld to the application, turn the device's power off and on again or disconnect and reconnect the USB cable on that handheld. The Unsafe to Eject Icon If your CRAMMER handheld is syncing files, the Eject button will be covered with a red circle with a slash through it, showing you that it is not safe to eject the handheld. Do not disconnect the CRAMMER handheld when the Unsafe to Eject icon is showing. If you do, the handheld might be corrupted and require reconnecting to fix it. UPDATES & REPAIRS There are two main types of updates for your child's CRAMMER handheld: content updates (e. g. , quiz and flash card downloads) and updates to the handheld itself. Quiz and Flash Card Pack Updates Every time the CRAMMER handheld is connected to your computer with an open Internet connection, the LEAPFROG® Connect Application checks to see if there are updates to quiz and flash card packs that have been previously downloaded. If any updates exist, they will automatically download and will be labeled as "Updated" in the On My CRAMMER page until the file syncs to your child's CRAMMER handheld. CRAMMER Handheld Updates Every time the CRAMMER handheld is connected to your computer with an open Internet connection, the LEAPFROG Connect Application checks to see if the handheld needs to be updated or repaired. If an update or repair is required, you will see a pop-up message to that effect. You will not be able to navigate around the application while this update is in progress. LEAPFROG Connect Application Updates In addition to the CRAMMER updates, there may also be updates to the LEAPFROG Connect Application.
