Troubleshooting  iDevices and incompatible messages 

If the iDevice (iPhone, iPad, etc) shows an incompatibility message, it basically translates to it needing more 
power.  These messages will not, in any way, harm your iPhone. It is an indication the sCharger-5 is not 
outputting the full energy needed to activate the iDevices’s internal charger.   Make sure the sCharger-5 is in the 
sun. After you plug your iDevice into the 

s

Charger-5

 

and you see the charge icon activate then you are charging.  

If not, then unplug the phone and plug it back in while the 

s

Charger-5

 

is in the sun then let the sCharger-5

 

do its 

job.  For battery status verification, take a note of the percentage charged(*see note below) then come back in 
ten minutes and verify how much it increased.     

*

Go to Settings->General->Usage then turn Battery Percentage “ON”. If this option is unavailable, then your 

iPhone needs an IOS update.
