QUsable portable devices
OQi standard wireless charge standard
can be used on compatible devices.
However, not all Qi standard devices
and compatibility are guaranteed.
OStarting with mobile phones and
smartphones, it is aimed for low
power electrically supplied portable
devices of no more than 5W.
OHowever, charging exceeding 5 W is
supported by the following portable
devices.
• Charging at 7.5 W or less is supported
by iPhone’s that support 7.5 W
charging.
• Charging at 10 W or less is supported
by portable devices compliant with
WPC standard Ver1.2.4.

If the smart entry & start system detects
the key while a device is being charged,
charging will be temporarily stopped.
QWhen covers and accessories are
attached to portable devices
Do not charge in situations where cover
and accessories not able to handle Qi
are attached to the portable device.
Depending on the type of cover and
accessory, it may not be possible to
charge. When charging is not performed
even with the portable device placed on
the charge area, remove the cover and
accessories.
QWhile charging, noise enters the
AM radio
OTurn off the wireless charger and con-
firm that the noise has decreased. If

ated
Remove the for-
eign substance
from the charge
area.
Portable device
misaligned:
The charging coil
in the portable
device moved out-

Remove the porta-
ble device from the
charging tray,
check that the
operation indicator
light switches back
to green, and then
once again place
the device near the
center of the
charging tray. If
there is a case or
cover attached to
the portable
device, remove it.
Suspected causesHandling method
Safety shutdown
