2. Connect power adapter to a wall outlet. It takes around 4
hours to charge the Joybee 720 completely.
Charging with a USB Cable
Connect the Joybee 720 to a computer with the provided USB
cable. When charging by PC through a USB cable, please have
your PC on rather than in idle mode or off.
•Exact charging time differs according to battery status.

When charging completes, battery bar stops illuminating.
•The life of battery depends on the frequency of charge, and
the more frequently the battery is recharged, the shorter

and not a manufacturing defect of battery.
