per second, or until you see the green or orange LED above

is receiving enough power from the radio. Continue to crank
at this rate until you are satisfied that an appropriate level
of charge has been received by your cell phone. If you decide
to stop cranking for whatever reason, please wait at least 5
seconds before beginning to crank again. Not following these
instructions may cause damage to your cell phone for which
