 Cell Phone and mp3/mp4 Operation 

Because cell phone batteries vary in their current ratings, we cannot specify charging rates or usage 
time. 10 to 15 minutes of cranking may result in 1 or more minute of talk-time, but your results may 
vary. 
 

Note:

 Charging a mobile phone through the Phone Charger Jack is intended for emergency purpose 

only. It is not intended for recharging fully a discharged battery.  Cell phone battery capacity 
significantly exceeds the battery capacity of the WR-089. Therefore, a fully charged WR-089 will only 
partially charge a cell phone or mp3/mp4 device. After the battery stops charging the device, you must 
begin cranking.
