Operating (Charging)
Your PowerA Play & Charge Kit offers two convenient ways to charge your controller:
- Direct Charging via USB Cable: Connect the included 10ft (3m) USB charging cable to the USB-C port on the installed battery pack (visible through the battery door opening) and plug the other end into a USB power source (e.g., Xbox console, USB wall adapter). The LED indicator on the battery pack will illuminate amber to show it is charging and turn white when fully charged.
- Charging with a PowerA Charging Station: If you own a compatible PowerA charging station, simply place the controller onto the station. The specialized battery door allows for seamless charging without removing the battery. The charging station's indicators will show the charging status.
