Powering On and Off
IMPORTANT: The GREEN LIGHTS are BATTERY INDICATORS ONLY!
They will always glow green while your Ocean has battery power
- To power on your Ocean, hold the central power button for at least two seconds until you see red lights glowing from within the case.
- To power off your Ocean, hold the power button for two seconds.
- To perform a HARD SHUTDOWN, hold the power button for ten seconds until the red lights disappear.

Charging the Ocean
There are a number of different options for charging the Ocean.
Use a USB port
Plug your Ocean into a wall-socket mounted USB port. These will generally charge the Ocean much more quickly than a laptop USB port.
Use a Wireless Charging Pad
Place your Ocean on a Qi wireless charging pad until the pad indicates that it is successfully charging the Ocean.
Firmware Power Cycle Button
To perform a full power-cycle of the Ocean, insert a paperclip into the pin-hole next to the micro USB port.
