• Charging Indicator: The charging cable itself does not have an indicator light. Please refer to the LED indicator on your quadcopter battery or quadcopter for charging status.

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity of your charging cable:

• Cleaning: Wipe the cable and connectors with a dry, soft cloth. Do not use liquid cleaners.
• Storage: Store the cable in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Avoid tightly coiling the cable to prevent damage to the internal wires.
