Charge your controller
With your PS5 console turned on or in rest mode, use a USB
cable to connect your controller to the console. When your
console is in rest mode, the light bar on your controller slowly
blinks orange. After charging is complete, the light bar turns
off.
To charge your controller while your console is in rest mode, go to
Settings > System > Power Saving > Features Available in Rest
Mode > Supply Power to USB Ports, and select an option other than
Off.
Mute your microphone
Each time you press the mute button, your mic switches
between muted (button lit) and unmuted (button off).
Press and hold the mute button to mute your mic and to
turn off sound output from the speakers on your controller
and TV. Press the mute button again to return to the original
state.
