Important
Do not place cards with NFC, such as key cards or electronic payment cards, between the wireless charger and the device when using the charging function. This could damage them.

Tip
Important
To maintain optimal battery health, don't leave the battery fully discharged for long periods.
If the fob is left with a flat battery for too long, you won't be able to recharge it. If the battery is completely flat and does not respond to being recharged, you can buy a new one. Contact a Polestar Authorised Service Point for more information.
Note
The card reader, fob charger and wireless charger are all located in the same place. Therefore, if you have a key card or key fob on the wireless charger, you have to remove it to be able to wirelessly charge a phone.
If the fob is too hot or too cold it will not charge correctly.
The car will not respond to any key if the car battery is completely flat.
Remember that even if the fob has a flat battery, it can still be used as a key card.
