Charging the battery

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