Warning!

While the device is charging, if the touch screen does not function due to an unstable power supply, unplug the USB power adapter from the power outlet or unplug the USB cable from the device.

3. Plug the Charging Head into a standard AC power

outlet.

4. When charging is complete, unplug the Charging Head

from the power outlet and remove the USB cable from the device.

Note:

You cannot charge the battery using the USB cable and

your PC.
