also appear in connected software. See Creative Cloud Link User Guide for more information.

applications. Cube’s Status indicator will triple flash red when there is no more space in memory. See
Sync stored colors on page 7 for more information.

Your Cube comes equipped with a rechargeable lithium-ion battery.
Charging your Cube. Connect Cube to your computer using the included cable. You must connect
your Cube to a USB 2.0 or USB 3.0 port on your computer.
Cube’s Status indicator will glow green when charging. Cube is fully charged once the Status
Indicator remains green and stops glowing.
Check battery level. You can check the level of your battery in the Status section of the Cube
Companion App. Cube’s Status Indicator will also notify you of low battery by flashing red.

Important: Cube is intended to work on smooth, fully-opaque, non-emissive, non-fluorescent
surfaces. For best results, place Cube against a surface so that no ambient light enters the Aperture
port.
