Your phone will alert you when it is running out of power. Please make sure to charge your phone in time to prevent it from turning off automatically when the power runs out.

Precautions for Charging

  • Charge your device using the standard charger and USB cable that came with your device. Using other chargers may result in a fire, explosion, or other hazard.

  • Do not use the charger in damp areas, such as in a bathroom. Do not handle the charger with wet hands.

  • Do not charge your device when there is moisture in the device.

  • After you connect your device to a charger or other devices using a USB cable, your device will automatically inspect the USB port. If moisture is detected in the USB port, your device will automatically activate safety measures and stop charging. Disconnect your device from the USB port and wait until the USB port is dry.

  • Do not cover your device or charger during charging.

  • If your device does not power on after you press and hold the Power button, the battery may have run out. Charge for 10 minutes and then power it on.

  • Disconnect the charger from this device and unplug the charger from the power socket once this device is fully charged or is not charging.

  • When the battery life becomes noticeably shorter, go to an authorized Huawei Customer Service Center to replace the battery.

  • It is recommended that you avoid using your device while charging.
