Gear Fit2 Pro: How to charge the battery?
1 Connect the charging cable to the USB power adapter.
2 Plug the USB power adaptor into an electric socket.
3 Place the Gear on the charger dock with the charging terminals facing each other. The charger should remain close to the electric socket and be easily accessible while charging.
4 After fully charging your Gear, disconnect it from the charger dock. Unplug the charger from the electric socket.

We recommend to follow the next charging tips and safety measures.

• If the unit is charged for the first time charge it only until the unit is fully (100%) charged. After this the unit is ready to be used.

• If there is sweat or liquid on the charging terminals, corrosion may occur on the terminals.

Clean the terminals before charging the battery.

• If the battery is completely discharged, the Gear cannot be turned on immediately when the charger is connected.

Allow a depleted battery to charge for a few minutes before turning on the Gear.

• If you use multiple apps at once, the battery will drain quickly. To avoid losing power during a data transfer, always use these apps after fully charging the battery.

• Using a power source other than the charger, such as a computer, may result in a slower charging speed due to a lower electric current.

• If the Gear is being charged with other devices via a multi-charger, charging may take longer.

• If the Gear receives an unstable power supply while charging, the touchscreen may not function. If this happens, disconnect the Gear from the charger dock.

• While charging, the Gear may heat up. This is normal and should not affect the Gear’s lifespan or performance. If the battery gets hotter than usual, the charger may stop charging.

• If the Gear is not charging properly, take the Gear to a Samsung Service Centre.

• Avoid using a bent or damaged charging cable.

• Use only a charger dock specifically designed for the Gear whenever is possible. The Gear cannot be properly charged with a third-party charger dock.

• Connecting the charger improperly may cause serious damage to the device. Any damage caused by misuse is not covered by the warranty.
