The juice pack plus Made for iPhone 4 User Manual
Features
The mophie juice pack plus extends the battery life of your iPhone for hours and provides a comfortable ergonomic design with the complete protection of a dual-injected hard shell case with protective rubberized band.
Here's a rundown of why the juice pack plus is so fantastic:
- Ergonomic, form-fitting, fully protective ultra-impact-resistant case-and-battery-in-one for iPhone.
- Integrated power switch allows you to put the juice pack plus in standby mode. Only use the battery when you need it. In standby mode (red), the juice pack plus still allows charge and sync capabilities through the micro-USB port and still offers the complete protection of a case.
- Uses breakthrough rechargeable lithium polymer battery (safer than those troublesome lithium-Ion batteries).
- State-of-the-art battery technology extends the life of your iPhone for hours, and you can even recharge it while it's still connected to the iPhone.
- Track battery power status at a glance with an integrated 4-light LED status indicator. Indicates charging mode and current battery life.
- The included USB micro cable connection allows you to charge and sync your iPhone while refilling your juice pack at the same time. You don't ever have to disconnect the juice pack.
- Rechargeable for over 500 cycles (full cycles).
- Smart battery technology actually instructs the iPhone to drain out the juice pack first. When you're done with the juice pack, you can pull it off and still have a fully charged iPhone.
- Offers complete protection from top to bottom, combining protection and power.
- Built-in short circuit, over-charge, and temperature protection for safety.
Compatibility
Though the juice pack plus for iPhone 4 comes with a standard iPod/iPhone connection pin, this battery is intended solely for use with the Apple iPhone 4. Please do not attempt to use the product with any other device.
Switching your juice pack plus to stand-by mode
If you'd rather use your internal battery and not the juice pack, use the switch on the lower-left corner of the juice pack to put it into stand-by mode. The dot near the switch will indicate whether the juice pack is in stand-by mode (red) or charging mode (green). When your internal battery is low, simply flick the switch On, and your iPhone will begin charging immediately.
Note: Using the stand-by switch will give you even more total battery life, as the iPhone uses additional power to be on a constant charge.
Charging your juice pack plus
Connect the juice pack to a power source using only the micro USB cable that came with your juice pack. The USB cable can be plugged into your computer or any "Made for iPhone" wall-plug style power source with USB out. The LEDs located on the back of the device will blink when charging, indicating how full it is. One LED will remain blinking until completely full.
Important
The juice pack plus comes charged and ready to go. After the initial use, normal charging will take only 2 to 3 hours for maximum power. You can then charge it while the iPhone is inserted or separately.
Charging your iPhone 4 using the juice pack plus
If your iPhone is drained of power or if you want to extend the battery life of your iPhone, simply slide the iPhone into the juice pack plus. Make sure that the pin connector is securely inserted into the bottom of the iPhone and the switch is turned On (green). When the iPhone recognizes the juice pack, a battery symbol will appear on the screen, and you will hear a chirp from the iPhone. This indicates that the iPhone is charging and/or using the power from the juice pack rather than from the iPhone itself.
If your iPhone is drained of power, the juice pack will first charge your iPhone. If your iPhone is fully charged, the juice pack will act as your primary battery, and no power will be lost from the iPhone internal battery until the juice pack is depleted. So you keep on talkin', rockin', surfin' and sendin'!
Checking the status of the juice pack plus
To check the battery status of the juice pack, press the button located on the bottom of the device. When pressed, the LED lights will illuminate for several seconds. Four LEDs means that the juice pack is fully charged, and one LED means that it is almost empty.
Sync with your computer without removing the juice pack plus
While connected to the juice pack plus, you can still sync your iPhone with a computer. Simply connect the included micro USB cable from the juice pack plus to the computer and sync your iPhone the same as if it was directly connected.
To keep your juice pack plus operating to its fullest potential, make sure to do the following:
- Keep your juice pack dry and away from moisture and corrosive materials.
- Do not wash the juice pack with harsh chemicals, soaps or detergents. Just wipe the case with a soft, water-dampened cloth. Wipe the pins gently with a soft, dry cloth.
- Re-charge your juice pack once every three months when not in use, and remember to charge it for one hour before putting it away the first time.
