charged  by  the  wireless  charger.  However,  compatibility  with  all  devices
which meet the Qi wireless charging standard is not guaranteed.
● The  wireless  charger  is  designed  to  supply  low  power  electricit y  (5  W  or
less) to a cellular phone, smartphone, or other portable device .
● However, portable devices, such as the following, can be charge d with more
than 5 W.
• 7.5 W charging compatible iPhones can be charged at 7.5 W or l ess.
• Portable devices which conform to WPC Ver 1.2.4 can be charged  at 10
W or less.
■ Using the smart key system
During  charging,  when  the  smart  key  system  searches  for  an  elec tronic  key,
charging may be temporarily suspended.
■ If a cover or accessory is attached to the portable device
Do not charge a portable device if a cover or accessory which i s not Qi com-
patible  is  attached.  Depending  on  the  type  of  cover  and/or  acce ssory
attached, it may not be possible to charge the portable device.  If the portable
device is placed on the charging area and does not charge, remo ve the cover
