sole. This charging pad is designed to wirelessly charge
your Qi enabled mobile phone. Qi is a standard that uses
magnetic induction to transfer power to your mobile
device.
Your mobile phone must be designed for Qi wireless
charging, be equipped with an aftermarket sleeve or
equipped with a back plate from your mobile phone
provider, or an online or local electronics retailer.
The wireless charging pad is equipped with an anti-slip
mat, an adjustable cradle to hold your mobile phone in
place and an LED indicator light.

bile phones and compatible aftermarket sleeves.

Wireless Charging Pad Operation
To use the wireless charging pad, the coil in your mobile
phone needs to align with the coil in the charging pad,
which is located directly under the Qi logo. Since each
mobile phone’s coil location is different, you may need a
few attempts to locate the correct spot for your mobile
phone:
1. Place your mobile phone on the wireless charging pad,
towards the Qi logo, so that the LED turns red. If the
LED does not turn red, pick up the mobile phone and
change the location.
2. Once the LED transitions from red to flashing green,
your mobile phone is correctly placed and charging.NOTE:The mobile phonemustbe aligned around the Qi
logo for the LED to transition from red to flashing green.
3. If the LED does not transition from red to flashing
green, and just turns off, pick up your mobile phone
and reposition it on the charging pad.

phone is charging. The Qi enabled phone is able to
