addition, even if the mobile device is in
the charging area, the charging
efficiency may decrease or charging
may not be possible depending on where
the mobile device is placed.
If the function to reduce noise on the
radio is used, fast charging may be
disabled depending on the mobile device
being charged.
If the LED indicator is flashing in amber
or green, the charging efficiency is low.
Check that there is no foreign matter
between the mobile device and the
charging area, and position the mobile
device near the center of the charging
area.
Depending on the mobile device case or
accessories used, the mobile device may
not charge, or the charging efficiency
may be reduced resulting in a longer
charging time. If charging does not start
even when a mobile device is placed on
the charging area, remove the mobile
device case or any accessories.
While the keyless entry is operating,
charging may stop temporarily, however,
this does not indicate a problem.
During charging, the Wireless Charger
(Qi) and the mobile device become
warm, however, this does not indicate a
problem.
