Operating Instructions

The UpBright AC/DC Adapter operates automatically once connected. It converts the AC wall power to the required 12V DC power for your compatible device.

• Ensure the adapter is placed in a well-ventilated area to prevent overheating.
• Do not cover the adapter with cloth or other materials during operation.
• If your device has an on/off switch, use that to control its power. The adapter itself does not have a power switch.

Care and Maintenance

• Cleaning: Disconnect the adapter from the power outlet and the device before cleaning. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the exterior. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosols.
• Storage: When not in use, store the adapter in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Avoid tightly coiling the cable to prevent damage.
• Inspection: Periodically inspect the adapter and its cable for any signs of damage, such as cuts, fraying, or bent pins. If damage is found, discontinue use and replace the adapter.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your UpBright AC/DC Adapter, refer to the following common solutions:

• Device Not Powering On:
  • Ensure the adapter is securely plugged into both the wall outlet and the device.
  • Check if the wall outlet is functional by plugging in another device.
  • Verify that the adapter's specifications (12V, 2.5A) match your device's power requirements.
  • Inspect the adapter cable and connectors for any visible damage.
• Adapter Feels Warm:
  • It is normal for the adapter to feel slightly warm during operation.
  • If it becomes excessively hot, disconnect it immediately and ensure it is in a well-ventilated area, not covered by anything. If the issue persists, discontinue use.
• Intermittent Power:
  • Check for loose connections at both the wall outlet and the device.
  • Ensure the cable is not bent or crimped, which could cause internal damage.

If troubleshooting steps do not resolve the issue, please contact customer support.
