1. Plug the one end of the USB Type-C cable into the port on the reader and another end into a USB port on the host PC or power adapter.
2. Please fully charge the reader (or until the Status LED turns off) before use. Required Time for full charge: One-Slot Charging Cradle: 2 hours USB Type-C Cable: 3.5 hours
