To avoid disconnecting from the network or losing power during a data transfer, always use these apps after fully charging the battery. • Using a power source other than the USB power adaptor, such as a computer, may result in a slower charging speed due to a lower electric current. Connect the USB cable to the USB power adaptor, and then plug the end of the USB cable into the multipurpose jack.
