Maintenance
- Cleaning: Disconnect the charger from the power outlet before cleaning. Use a dry, soft cloth to wipe the surface. Avoid using liquid cleaners or aerosols.
- Storage: Store the charger in a cool, dry place when not in use. The foldable prongs allow for compact storage, protecting them from damage.
- Environmental Conditions: Avoid exposing the charger to extreme temperatures, direct sunlight, or humid environments.
- Cable Care: Ensure charging cables are not bent sharply or placed under heavy objects to prevent damage.
Troubleshooting
- Device Not Charging:
- Ensure the charger is securely plugged into a working power outlet.
- Verify that the charging cable is properly connected to both the charger and your device.
- Try using a different charging cable to rule out a faulty cable.
- Test the charger with a different device to confirm the charger's functionality.
- Slow Charging Speed:
- Ensure your device supports fast charging and that you are using a compatible USB-C to USB-C cable.
- Note that for some devices, such as Note 10 / Note 10+ / S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra, the charging speed may be slower than with the original 25W charger.
- If charging an iPhone (8/8 Plus/X/XS Max/XS/XR), fast charging (9V) will begin automatically, regardless of whether you hear one or two charging indicator sounds.
- Charger Overheating:
- While the charger is designed for efficient heat dissipation, excessive heat can occur under certain conditions. Disconnect the charger and allow it to cool down.
- Ensure the charger is used in a well-ventilated area and not covered by materials that could trap heat.
