or could stop if any of the following occur:
• The system detects a foreign object.
• The device is misaligned on the
charging area.
• The device moves on the active
charging area when the vehicle is in
motion. •
The vehicle ambient temperature is too
high.
• You attempt to charge a non-Qi
compatible device on the wireless
charger.
Note: During charging, the device and the
charger could heat up, this is normal. If the
battery gets hotter than usual, the device
may stop charging.
LOCATING THE WIRELESS
