The back lamp always initially light after charging starts. Even if the battery is already fully charged, the lamp will light momentarily.

If the lamp does not light, check the orientation of the USB cable connector.

• Note that even while the connector is fully inserted, you still will be able to see the metal part of the connector as shown in the illustration.

.To charge using a USB connection to a computer
