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.
2. Connect the USB cable to the charging head, and then plug the charging head into a standard outlet.
3. Unplug the charging head from the outlet and remove the USBcable from the device when charging is complete.
