{Warning
Remove all objects from the
charging pad before charging
your compatible smartphone.
Objects, such as coins, keys,
rings, paper clips, or cards,
between the smartphone and
charging pad will become very
hot. On the rare occasion that the
charging system does not detect
an object, and the object gets
wedged between the smartphone
and charger, remove the
smartphone and allow the object
to cool before removing it from
the charging pad, to prevent
burns.
To charge a smartphone:
1. Remove all objects from the charging pad. The system may
not charge if there are any
objects between the
smartphone and charging pad.
2. Place the smartphone face up on the charging pad.
