This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,

compliance and negate your authority to operate the product.
This product has demonstrated EMC compliance under conditions that included the use of compliant
peripheral devices and shielded cables between system components. It is important that you use
compliant peripheral devices and shielded cables between system components to reduce the possibility
of causing interference to radios, televisions, and other electronic devices.

6 CHARGING THE LUMINODE2+
You must use the USB charger brick and USB-C cable that
came with the LumiNode to charge the LumiNode.
After plugging in the charger, one of the three LEDs in the
battery icon will start flashing depending on the current
battery level. The LumiNode2+ will typically fully recharge
in 8-24 hours, depending on the state of the battery.
The three LEDs will remain solidly lit when the device is
fully charged.
IMPORTANT NOTE
Ensure the rubber insert is re-installed onto the USB-C port after charging. Failure to do
so may lead to damage to the charger port due to the accumulation of debris and water
inside the port.
