Troubleshooting
Problem | Solution |
---|---|
Unit is not recharging. |
|
Unit is not charging or powering my device. |
|
Unit is not charging or powering my devices and the top 4 LEDs blinking. |
This occurs when the unit has detected it is outside of its operating temperature range.
|
Bottom LED is blinking. | Low Battery and battery under voltage shut down: When the battery capacity is low, the bottom LED will blink fast. Place the unit on the M-Dock and allow it to charge. |
I can hear the cooling fan inside the unit. | This is normal operation. The fan automatically turns on and off at variable speeds to maintain optimal internal temperature. |
