Operating Instructions

Once the LGM AC Power Adapter is correctly connected to both a power source and your compatible device, it will automatically begin to supply power. Depending on your device's design, this will either power the device for immediate use or initiate the battery charging process.

• No additional user interaction is typically required for basic power delivery or charging.

Maintenance

Proper care will extend the life of your LGM AC Power Adapter:

• Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the adapter. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosols.
• Storage: Store the adapter in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures when not in use.
• Cable Care: Avoid sharply bending, twisting, or crimping the power cable. Do not place heavy objects on the cable.
• Inspection: Periodically inspect the adapter and cable for any signs of damage, such as frayed wires or cracked casing. If damage is found, discontinue use immediately.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your LGM AC Power Adapter, refer to the following common solutions:

• Device Not Receiving Power:
  • Ensure the adapter's AC prongs are fully inserted into a functional wall outlet. Test the outlet with another device.
  • Verify that the barrel connector is securely and correctly plugged into your device's power input port.
  • Confirm that your device is compatible with this adapter and is functioning correctly on its own.
• Adapter Feels Warm During Use:
  • It is normal for power adapters to generate some heat during operation. If the adapter becomes excessively hot to the touch, disconnect it immediately from the power source and your device. Ensure it is in a well-ventilated area and not covered.

If these steps do not resolve the issue, contact customer support for further assistance.
