With the adapter properly connected to both the vehicle's 12V DC socket and your Trimble GeoExplorer device, the adapter will begin supplying power. Your device's charging indicator (if present) should illuminate, indicating that charging is in progress.

Charging times may vary based on the device's battery level, its power consumption during use, and the vehicle's electrical system.

• Keep the adapter clean and dry. Avoid contact with liquids.
• Store the adapter in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures when not in use.
• Do not bend or crimp the cable excessively, as this can damage internal wiring.

6.2. Cleaning

Before cleaning, always disconnect the adapter from both the vehicle's power source and your Trimble device. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the surface of the adapter. Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or liquid sprays.
