You receive a notification when the Power Bank level is below 15%.

CHAR GING

To charge your device using a cable, connect the compatible cable via the bottom of the Cardholder, connect the other end to your device and turn on the Power Bank by sliding the Power Bank toggle in the app to the right or by double-pressing the Alarm Button on the Cardholder.
To charge a QI compatible device wirelessly, turn on the Power Bank as described above and place your device on the ‘back’ of the Cardholder (the side with the Volterman Logo. If properly aligned, your device should start charging after a few seconds.

Please Note

• QI charging is significantly slower than conventional cable charging.
• Always turn the Power Bank
off when you are not charging a device as QI technology emits a regular signal which can cause a significant reduction in battery life.
• Only use the provided cables.
• Do not use your Volterman cables
to charge other devices.
• We recommend that you enable
the app’s ‘Airplane Mode’ when charging your wallet.
• Simultaneously charging your Cardholder with a cable and wirelessly is not
recommended.
• Simultaneously charging two devices via cable and wirelessly is not recommended.
• Likewise, charging a device via the Cardholder whilst charging the Cardholder at the
same time is not recommended.
• Do not charge your Cardholder using a power supply greater than 5V 2A

TRA CK MY W ALLET

By pressing the button, the Track My Wallet function allows you to see your
Cardholder’s location using GPS. From the tracking screen you can:
• Track your Cardholder in
real time.
• Get directions to your
Cardholder.

Please Note:

• The GPS location may
not be accurate when the Cardholder is in an enclosed location. However, the device automatically tags its location on an hourly basis and these last tagged locations can be viewed from inside the app.

MEMOR Y B ANK

Your Cardholder contains a 64GB memory and
can be used to store all regular files. To access your files, press the Memory Bank icon where you will be advised to connect to the Volterman Wi-Fi (navigation to your phone’s Wi-Fi screen is dependent on your Operating System and phone).
The default password is -
12345678
Once connected, navigate back to the Volterman app. You will now have access to your Memory Bank and any files that are contained within. You can also add, rename and delete folders and files in much the same way as any other File Manager.

Please Note:

• Connection to the Volterman Wi-Fi IS NOT an
internet connection but a direct link between your device and your Volterman wallet using Wi-Fi protocol. This is a standard data-transfer technique used by many high-end devices and is much faster than Bluetooth. You will not have internet access at this time.
• A small amount of your 64GB is taken up with
necessary system files that enable your OS to communicate with the Memory Bank.

The Distance Alarm will ring whenever your wallet is out of
range (approximately 20M/65ft). To activate the Distance Alarm, turn your phone’s Bluetooth on and ensure that your Cardholder is connected. Slide the toggle under the Alarm Icon to the right. If Bluetooth connection is lost, your wallet and phone will ring and vibrate. Your phone will display a pop-up with a button that can turn the alarm off.
