Charging the battery

Indexterm: "charging"

Indexterm: "battery"

Your battery is partly charged when you buy the device. It may take a few minutes

before the battery icon ID: ICN-SONY-STAT-SYS-BATTERY-CHARGE-ANIM3

appears on the screen when you connect the charger cable to a power source, such

as a USB port or a charger. You can still use your device while it is charging.

Charging your device over a long period of time, for example, overnight, does not

damage the battery or the device.

The battery will start to discharge a little after it is fully charged and then charges again after a

certain time when the charger is connected. This is to extend battery life and may result in the

charge status showing a level below 100 percent.

Plug the charger into a power outlet.

Plug one end of the USB cable into the charger (or into the USB port of a

computer).

Plug the other end of the cable into the micro USB port on your device, with

the USB symbol facing up. The notification light lights up when charging starts.

When the notification light is green, the device is fully charged. Disconnect the

USB cable from your device by pulling it straight outwards. Make sure not to

bend the connector when removing the cable from the device.

If the battery is completely discharged, it may take a few minutes before the notification light

lights up after you connect the charger cable to a power source.
