Dear Customer,

We’d like to thank you for your choice of this ARCHOS camera add-on module for your

Jukebox Multimedia or AV model. By adding this camera to your Archos device, you

now have all the functionality of a 1.3 Megapixel Digital still camera AND a video

camcorder. Please be careful to treat it like you would a regular camera by handling it

carefully and cleaning the lens with a cleaner specific to camera lenses. Don’t forget to

consult our web site to get the very latest operating system (OS) for your multimedia

device so that your camera works optimally.

Wishing you the best Video, Music, and Photo experience,

The ARCHOS TEAM

1.1 Software Requirements

Please check the OS version of your Jukebox Multimedia. If it is less than 1.1.0, your Camera 100

will not work and you will have to update your Jukebox Multimedia Operating System (OS). All

versions of the AV120 operating system support the Camera 100. The latest version of the

operating system is available on our web site at www.archos.com. If your Camera comes with a

CD, it will have an OS that supports the Camera 100, but it may not be the most recent version.

Please check your manual for detailed instructions on updating your Jukebox Multimedia

Operating System.
