- Charging Cable - Used to charge the TytoCare device, using the USB port on your computer or a UL-certified USB wall charger. You may find this cable inside the smaller white box inside your TytoCare Medical Exam Kit packaging along with the disposables.
Note:
- The device comes pre-charged. If it does not power on, connect the charging cable to Tyto to charge it. Remove the rubber band and connect the charging cable to the charging outlet.
- You cannot perform exams during the charging process. It is recommended to fully charge the battery before use.
- Charging is indicated by a light on the front of the device depending on its version.
- G1: Orange - charging | Green - charged
- G2: Purple - charging | Blue - charged
- Store the device charged, and re-charge it once every 3 months. Storing the device when the battery is drained may shorten battery life.
- For G1 devices, be sure to connect the charging cable to the charging outlet (see image below), not to the headphones outlet, which is nearby and larger.
- For G2 devices, there should see a USB-C port present at the bottom of the device intended for charging.
