How to charge your battery pack
You need to do two things to charge your Vega:
1. charge the battery pack using the base
2. charge the Vega from the battery pack.
The Vega works in this way so you don't have to take it off to charge it.
Charging the battery pack using the base
1. Attach the battery pack to the base by putting the side with
the hooked end into the battery pack-shaped hole.
Then flip it down so it rests on the base.
2. Push the latch on the end of the battery pack forward.
This will secure the battery pack to the latches on the base.
3. If you've pushed the latch forward in the right way, the
base's red light and the battery pack's blue light should both
be on. This shows it's charging. When it's fully charged, the
red light turns green and the blue light turns off. It'll take
about two and a half hours to charge.
To take the battery pack out of the base, press the button. You'll hear a click when
it's been released – don't force it, you might break it.
If you don't use them for a long time, the battery pack and the Vega's built-in
battery will gradually lose power.
We've designed the charging system so the battery pack is always resting either
on the base or on the Vega. During a power failure, the battery pack can supply
backup power to the base. For this to happen, make sure the battery pack is in its
normal position on the base and that the blue light is on.
When the battery pack's charge is running low, the red light will start flashing.
The Vega runs in economy mode (meaning it uses less power) inside the home
zone, but you should still recharge it every day.

Charging your Vega

You can only recharge the Vega's built-in battery by using the battery pack. Before
charging the Vega, make sure that the battery pack itself is fully charged.
1. Attach the battery pack to the Vega by putting the side
with the hooked end into the slot on the Vega.
2. Flip it down so it rests on the Vega.
3. Push the latch forward on to the end of the battery pack.
This will secure the battery pack to the Vega.
The battery pack's blue light should then come on. Charging the Vega can take up
to three hours.
When you charge the Vega for the first time (or when it's running very low on
battery), charge it twice to get the most out of it.
The battery icon shows the battery charge level.
An empty red icon sends a warning that the Vega's battery is running low.
When your Vega's power runs low, it'll send out an alert. We'll deal with the alert
based on what you've asked us to do in your Help at Hand online profile, or based
on what the organisation managing the Vega for you has recommended that we
do. The Vega will only send out one alert a day.
To take the battery pack off the Vega, press the button on top to unlock it. You'll
hear a click when it's unlocked. Remember to put the battery pack back on the
base to charge afterwards.
