Chigee Display No Built-In Battery (External Power Required)
CHIGEE Displays do not include a built-in battery and cannot be charged. They must be installed on the motorcycle and powered by an external power source, such as your motorcycle's battery, through proper wiring or a BMW cradle.
Why do I see a battery icon on the CHIGEE Display?
The battery icon shown on the screen is not the CHIGEE Display’s battery.
When you use CarPlay or Android Auto, the display is mirroring your phone’s interface, so the battery icon typically indicates your phone’s battery level.
