Charge the battery

Your device is powered by a rechargeable battery. A charger (charging head and USB Type-C cable) is included with the device for charging the battery from a power outlet.

From Quick settings, tap Wireless PowerShare to enable this feature.
With the phone face down, place the compatible device on the back of the phone to charge. A notification sound or vibration occurs when charging begins.
NOTE Wireless PowerShare works with most Qi-Certified devices. Requires a minimum of 30% battery to share. The speed and power efficiency of charging vary by device.

If the device is exposed to fresh water, dry it thoroughly with a clean, soft cloth; if exposed to liquid other than fresh water, rinse with fresh water and dry as directed.
Any device that uses accessible compartments or ports that can be opened should have these sealed or closed tightly to prevent liquid from entering the system.
If the device has been immersed in water or the microphone or speaker is wet, sound may not be heard clearly during a call. After wiping the device with a dry cloth, dry it thoroughly before using it.
Do not expose the device to water at high pressure.
If the device is dropped or receives an impact, the water and dust resistant features of the device may be damaged.
