Charging your Apple Watch Series 9 is a simple process using the magnetic charging cable included with your watch.
Charging Your Apple Watch Series 9
To charge your Apple Watch Series 9, you will use the magnetic fast charger to USB-C cable that comes in the box. Follow these steps:
- Connect the Cable: Plug the USB-C end of the magnetic fast charger cable into a compatible USB-C power adapter.
- Attach the Charger: Take the magnetic charging puck end of the cable. Attach it to the back of your watch just like this. The magnet will align the puck correctly with the charging coils on the back of the watch.
- Verify Connection: The watch should automatically connect to the charger, and you will see the charging indicator on the display.
- Power Source: Plug the power adapter into a wall outlet.
Note: As seen in the reference, a power adapter is typically not included with the device, so you will need to use a compatible USB-C power adapter (like one from your iPhone or purchased separately) to plug the charging cable into.
The Apple Watch Series 9 supports fast charging when paired with the magnetic fast charger cable and a compatible USB-C power adapter (20W or higher recommended by Apple for fast charging). This allows the watch to charge significantly faster than with previous standard chargers.
