When to Charge the Battery

When the battery is weak and only a few minutes

cause damage.

In this condition, your device conserves its
remaining battery power by dimming the screen.

When the battery level becomes too low, the device
automatically turns off.

► For a quick check of your battery level, view the

battery charge indicator located in the Status
bar of your device’s display. A solid color ( )
indicates a full charge.

You can also choose to display a percentage
value. Viewing a percentage value can provide
a better idea of the remaining charge on the
battery. For more information, see Battery.

2. Connect the USB cable to the charging head,
and then plug the charging head into a standard
outlet.

3. When charging is complete, unplug the charging
head from the outlet and remove the USB cable
