How to Turn ON Your Calera

Your Calera device uses motion activation for reliable startup:

💡Prior to initial startup, make sure to charge the device for 2 hours

  1. Shake the device for 2-3 seconds
  2. Watch for LED confirmation - Green light flashing indicates successful activation
  3. The device is now ready for connection and measurement

❗Important Notes 

Battery check -If the LED does not light up, the battery is low—please charge the device before use.
