How to Use the Wireless Charging in Buick GL8?
2 Answers
First, secure the car wireless charger in a suitable position in the cabin. Connect one end of the wireless charger's USB cable to the car's cigarette lighter port and the other end to the wireless charger. After fixing the wireless charger in place and ensuring it is stable and won't slide, place your phone on it to start charging. The device uses the received energy to charge the battery.
When I first drove the Buick GL8, I found the wireless charging feature super convenient. After starting the car, just locate the wireless charging pad in the front center console tray—it has an icon—and place your phone on it. Your phone needs to support wireless charging standards, like iPhone 8 and above or Android Qi-compatible models. Once placed correctly, the indicator light turns green or blue, signaling charging has begun. If nothing happens, check the settings menu on the center display, navigate to vehicle functions, and toggle the wireless charging switch on. I often use it to keep my phone alive while driving—just avoid thick phone cases; plastic ones work best, or charging may fail. Align the phone properly to prevent slipping, safety first. It’s very user-friendly, easy to master on first try. Regularly clean dust off the charging pad for stable performance. Compared to wired charging, it eliminates cable hassle—just drop and go during daily drives.
