TROUBLESHOOTING If CAIA does not appear to be operating as expected, perform a short press and check the response as below: Place CAIA so the mirror is in direct sunlight (PV cell is at the top of the mirror) If no change after a long time in the sun (a day?), Flat battery or No response...
SAFETY INFORMATION 1. CAIA has not yet acquired any safety, compliance or other relevant certifications. 2. If CAIA’s mirror breaks, please handle very delicately and be careful not to injure yourself. 3. There is no proprietary mechanism to “fix” her in place. If she is knocked over and falls (from any distance), she may cause injury.
