Touch button
This is the button that switches her on. It is touch-sensitive, just apply a light pressure with
two fingers.
This button also does a few other things that we’ll get into later.
Solar cells
This is CAIA’s source of energy. To keep her charged and ready to function, make sure this
side is facing the sunlight when you are not using her.
Mirror
This is the mirror that reflects the sunlight. It is one of CAIA’s most fragile parts.
Sensor (i.e., the “pointer”)
CAIA will redirect the sunlight in the direction of the straight line created by the center of the
mirror and this light sensor. Just imagine this line continuing straight, away from the light
sensor. This is where CAIA will be pointing the sunlight.
Sliding axis
You can adjust the height of the pointer by moving the slider up or down. Make sure that you
loosen and then tighten the lock of the moving slider. This is a little black cog (wheel) found
on the base.
Adjustable base
This is the base that CAIA ‘sits’ on. It is very easy to fit onto CAIA when you receive her.
Without this, CAIA will not be able to sit on flat surfaces.
