3 Place the Gear into the wireless charger dock.
4 After fully charging your Gear, disconnect it from the wireless charger dock. Unplug the
charger from the wireless charger dock, and then unplug the charger from the electric
socket.
To save energy, unplug the charger when not in use. The charger does not have a
power switch, so you must unplug the charger from the electric socket when not in
use to avoid wasting power. The charger should remain close to the electric socket
and be easily accessible while charging.
Checking the charging status
When you connect the Gear and the wireless charger dock, the wireless charger dock’s LED
indicator flashes certain colours to indicate the battery level.
