Charging Your Controller

The PowerA Play & Charge Kit offers two convenient ways to charge your controller:

• Charge While You Play: Connect the included 9.8ft USB charge cable to the charging port on the battery door and plug the other end into a USB port on your Xbox console or any compatible USB power source. You can continue playing while the controller charges.
• Direct to Battery Pack: The battery packs can also be charged directly by plugging the USB cable into the micro-USB port located on the battery pack itself, outside of the controller. This allows you to charge a spare battery while using another.

An LED indicator on the battery pack will show the charging status (typically red for charging, green for fully charged).
