Nighthawk M6 Charging best practices Charging your Nighthawk M6 properly is important to ensure its longevity and maintain its performance. Here are some best practices to follow when charging your mobile hotspot: • Use the provided charging cable: To ensure the safety and performance of your Nighthawk M6, always use the charging cable that came with the device. Using third-party cables might result in slower charging, and can damage your device. Do not use damaged or frayed charging cables. • Plug the cable into a power source: Plug the charging cable into a wall adapter (recommended) or a computer USB port to charge the device. Make sure that the power source is stable and reliable. • Check the charging status: When you plug in the charging cable, check the device's charging status. The charging indicator in the status bar shows a lightning bolt over the battery icon if the device is charging. If the charging indicator does not appear, try unplugging the cable and plugging it back in. • Charge the device fully: We recommend that you charge the Nighthawk M6 fully before using it for the first time, and that you let the device recharge fully before using it again when you discharge the battery. This helps to maintain the battery's lifespan and overall performance. • Avoid overcharging: Overcharging the device can damage the battery and shorten its lifespan. When the device is fully charged, unplug it from the power source. Don't leave it plugged in overnight or for long periods of time. We recommend that you remove the battery when the device is plugged in for a long period of time. • Charge in a well-ventilated area: Charging your Nighthawk M6 in a well-ventilated area can prevent overheating and ensures that the device charges efficiently. Avoid charging the device in an enclosed space or in direct sunlight. By following these best practices, you can ensure that your Nighthawk M6 stays charged and performs optimally for years to come. Connect to the Internet When you turn on your Nighthawk M6, it automatically connects to the network in your area. Connect your device to the Nighthawk M6 WiFi network to access the Internet. Depending on the specific model and service provider, your Nighthawk M6 might come with a preinstalled SIM card. If so, the SIM must be activated on a data plan from that service provider.
