As continuous efforts are being made by the manufacturer to ensure the best

quality and performance of the ECTACO Partner®products, some

characteristics of the device you have purchased may slightly differ from their

description in this manual.

General View

The general view and external features of ECTACO®Partner®C-4ER are shown

below.

Power Supply

ECTACO®Partner®C-4ER is powered by a special Li-Polymer rechargeable

battery.

The battery is not user-replaceable.

When the battery becomes weak, the battery life picture is shown as . In that

case, the voice function will be disabled in order to prevent excessive discharge

ECTACO®Partner®C-4ER User Manual

of the battery and a resulting loss of data in RAM. To restore full functionality of

the device, recharge the battery as soon as possible.

How to Recharge the Battery

ECTACO®Partner®C-4ER is equipped with a jack for external power supply.

Only a special charger may be used with your ECTACO®Partner®C-4ER.

Use of an inappropriate external power supply may cause failure of the

device and will void the warranty. The AC/DC adapter should provide 5V

and min 250mA DC.

•Connect the AC/DC adapter to your device via the AC/DC adapter jack (see

General View). The battery charging process will start.

SD card

Before you start using your ECTACO®Partner®C-4ER, please make sure the SD

card (included in the standard package) is installed into the SD slot of the device.

If the card is not installed, slide it into the slot located on the lower edge of the

device – the contacts of the card face up (if the device is unfolded), label face

down. Push the card gently until it clicks into place. To eject the card, just push it

in slightly.

Initialization

The initialization routine is started:

when ECTACO®Partner®C-4ER is turned on for the first time;

after the system has been reset with the Reset button.

The Reset button is located on the left-hand side of the keyboard (over the

SHIFT key). It can be accessed with any thin object like a paper clip. Never

use a needle or pin for this purpose since it can damage the device.

•If you see the Initialize system? (y/n) message, press the Nkey to abort

initialization and customization.

The System initialized! message indicates that system initialization has been

completed and the factory defined default settings have been restored.

Russian letters. Russian standard mode allows you to enter Russian letters

corresponding to the keyboard marks. Russian phonetic mode allows you to
