  3. Connect the other end of the USB cable to a compatible USB power source (e.g., wall adapter, computer USB port, power bank).
  4. The switch indicator light will illuminate to show charging status. If the indicator turns red, the battery level is low and requires charging.
  5. Once fully charged, disconnect the USB cable and ensure the port cover is securely closed.
