6 Charging 2go
2go can be charged with the provided USB cable L or the charger supplied with Hugo 2. It takes about 5 hours to charge 2go. 2go and Hugo 2 can be charged simultaneously, with a charge time of about 8 hours.
NOTICE When using a different charger, make sure it can supply at least 1A to charge 2go. To charge 2go and Hugo 2 simultaneously, an input of at least 2A is required. Using a 1A charger to charge both devices simultaneously will result in only Hugo 2 being charged.
TIP We recommend that you fully charge 2go before using it for the first time.
TIP 2go can be charged while playing back audio, but this increases the charging time.
To charge 2go:
1. Insert the USB cable L or Hugo 2 charger into the Micro USB charging port G .
2.Insert the other end of the USB cable L or Hugo 2 charger into a suitable power outlet or adapter. 2go will start to charge and the charge status LED F and 2go status LED E will emit a solid white light.
