Does your Micro-I turn off intermittently?

BEHAVIOUR YOU MAY EXPERIENCE:

Your Micro-I turns off intermittently.


1. MICRO-I'S BATTERY CHARGE IS LOW

It may be that the Micro-I's battery's charge is too low to power up all the Micro-I's components.

Resolve the issue

1. Turn off your Micro-I 

  1. If your Micro-I is on (i.e. the power button is green), press the power button for three seconds to turn it off:
    • the power button's backlight will turn off after flashing red
    • your Micro-I's internal light will turn off after flashing amber.

2. Connect your Micro-I to external power

  1. Plug your Micro-I's power adapter into a wall socket and the other end (Micro-USB) into your Micro-I.
  2. Turn on the power at the wall socket.

3. Turn on your Micro-I 

  1. Press the power button on your Micro-I for two seconds to turn it on:
    • the power button's back-light will flash red and green before settling on green
    • your Micro-I's internal light will glow yellow and flash white before settling on solid white when ready.

2. POWER ADAPTER IS INCOMPATIBLE OR FAULTY
