When to Charge the Battery

When the battery is low and only a few minutes of

regular intervals.

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 top

right corner 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” on page134.

While charging, the device and the charger may

become hot. This does not affect the device’s lifespan or performance and is in the device’s normal range of operation.

The charger may stop charging if the battery becomes

too hot.

9Set Up Your Device

If the device heats up while charging the battery:

1. Disconnect the charger from the device and close any running apps.
