STORAGE:
Before storing, ensure that the VRH150X is completely dry.
Store in a cool, dry place and ensure that the battery is topped up to at
least 50%. Long-term storage of depleted lithium batteries can cause
unrepairable damage to the cells which is not covered under the guarantee.
CLEANING:
Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe the surface and allow it to dry before storage.
Do not use solvents as this may cause unrepairable damage.
POWER AND CHARGING:
The onboard power display will illuminate momentarily immediately before and
after the device is turned on/off.
To recharge: open the rubber USB cover and use a micro USB cable to connect to
any CE / UL-approved 5V power source.
When charging is complete the VRH150X will automatically stop accepting a
charge. The LEDs will remain illuminated until the device is disconnected.
A full charge from empty will take approximately 3 – 3.5 hours.
Note: Ensure that the VRH150X is completely dry before attempting to
charge the device. Do not attempt to charge the VRH150X in temperatures above
35C or below 5C. Doing so will void your warranty and may cause permanent
damage to the internal lithium cells of the device.
