Staying Safe While Charging

A few simple habits make charging safer and more comfortable:

Use your headlights — illuminate the charger area while you assess the site before getting out
Scan the ground before you step out — look for ice patches, uneven surfaces, or hidden curbs
Clear snow from around your feet — stable footing before you lift the cable
Keep your phone accessible — not buried where cold will drain it faster
Avoid twisting on ice — reposition yourself rather than twisting your body on an unstable surface

A simple winter charging routine

Pull in → headlights on → scan the ground → check footing before stepping out → assess cable before lifting → position yourself so you don't need to twist → plug in → step back to stable ground while you wait. Thirty extra seconds can prevent a fall.
