Troubleshooting

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To begin using your Polaroid FLIP, charge the device fully via the USB-C port until the indicator light signifies a full battery. Open the film door, insert either an i-Type or 600 film pack, and close the door; the camera will automatically eject the dark slide.

Compatibility: This model works seamlessly with current Polaroid i-Type film and legacy 600 film cartridges.

Care Instructions: Clean the external lens elements with a soft, microfiber cloth to prevent smudges from affecting the sonar sensor. Store the camera in a cool, dry place and remove film packs if you plan on leaving the camera unused for extended periods to protect the internal rollers. Always ensure the sonar sensor area remains unobstructed by straps or fingers during operation.
