FIRECEL CHARGING

FireCel's battery can be charged using the USB port on a personal computer or laptop:

1. Using the supplied USB cable, attach the smaller plug into FireCel's Input Micro USB port (#6).
2. Connect the larger plug into your computer's USB port. Make sure your computer is turned on.
3. The red indicator lights will start to blink and display the current battery level.
4. When all four red LEDs are lit, the battery is fully charged.

It is recommended that you fully charge FireCel before using for the first time. If the battery is completely drained, it may take approximately 5 to 6 hours to fully recharge.

CHARGING AN ELECTRONIC DEVICE

Once your FireCel is fully charged, you can use it to charge your electronic device such as an iPhone or iPod.

1. Plug a USB charging cable into your device.
2. Plug the other end of the cable into FireCel's USB port (#7).
3. Press the multi-function button. The green LED indicator under the letter "C" will light up to indicate that FireCel is charging your device.

If FireCel's battery becomes too weak to charge your device, red LED indicators will start to blink. After 5 minutes, charging will automatically stop.

NOTE:
If you press the multi-function button without connecting a device, FireCel will automatically turn off.
