Introduction
Congratulations and thank you for purchasing a storage and charging
trolley from the LapSafe® Mentor™ range. Your trolley comes with a
life time parts and labour warranty which you will need to activate
immediately (see Warranty section).
This manual has been designed to assist and guide you with the set-up
and correct use of your trolley. However, as there are many configurations
available within the Mentor™ range this manual is not exhaustive of all the
variations possible.

Important Actions
Upon delivery of your new Mentor™ trolley you must:
• Take a note and store in a safe place your trolley’s serial number
which can be found located on the back of the trolley. The silver plate
will hold your serial number that begins with LE (Figure 1). You will
need to quote this number for all enquiries relating to your trolley.
• Take a note of your key number located on the key itself and store
this in a safe and secure place. You will need this if you wish to order
additional keys (Figure 2).
• Visit support.lapsafe.com/warranty to activate your Lifetime
Warranty. Your warranty will not be valid unless you do this.
• Read the section on ‘Health & Safety’.
Getting Started
Before moving your trolley you must fit the trolley handles and cable
tidies which can be found inside the front of the trolley:
• Fit one handle to each side of the trolley using the screws and allen
key provided (Figure 3).
• The cable tidies should be hung beneath the handles and be used to
stow the power cable whenever the trolley is moved.
• If your trolley is fitted with an alarm you will need to connect and
charge the alarm battery, see the alarm section under ‘Mentor
Options’.

trolley and from the wall socket, loop the power lead in the cable
tidies located beneath the trolley handles.
• Check that any network cable (Cat5) has been disconnected from the
back of the trolley.
• Ensure that all of the trolley doors are securely closed and locked,
and that all keys have been removed. Do not move the trolley with a
key le in the lock.
• Ensure that there are no items le on the top of the trolley.

At The New Location
• Ensure that all wheel brakes are applied using foot operated pedals.
• Never position the trolley in front of any fire exit ot fire escape routes
• Never position the trolley in the view of any windows for security

Charging Devices - SmartLine™
If you have chosen SmartLine™ with PowaSave™ then your trolley has
been fitted with LapSafe®’s ultra-safe preconfigured charging leads,
specific to the make and model of your chosen device.
You do not require the AC adaptors that come with your devices to be
fitted into this trolley (Figure 7).
• Place each laptop into a charging bay – only one device per shelf
unless configured for tablets where sometimes two per shelf can be
accommodated (in this case two charging leads will be visible).
• Plug the black SmartLine™ charging cables provided in each bay into
the corresponding laptop’s power port to allow charging (Figure 8).
What is PowaSave™
PowaSave™ technology is designed to provide power savings over
‘duration charging’ of laptops and netbooks.

Charging Your Devices
• Connect the mains power lead supplied with your trolley to the
power port near the bottom at the back of your trolley (Figure 5).
• Plug the lead into a wall power socket and turn on at the wall.
• Turn on the power at the trolley by flipping the power switch next to
the power port (Figure 6).

Module Charging Lights Explained

10 11
This highly intelligent system is only available on the Mentor™
SmartLine™. It automatically senses when a module (of five devices) is
fully charged and it then stops charging the module to avoid wasting
power; thus making vast energy savings. All devices are still charged
simultaneously in the fastest possible time.
Charging Devices - ChargeLine™
If you have chosen ChargeLine™ then your trolley will be configured to
allow you to use the AC adaptors that are supplied with your device. Your
trolley will have either a three pin 13 amp socket fitted to each shelf or a
European socket. (Figure 9)
• Neatly place one AC adaptor into each charging bay and plug into the
white charging socket provided.
• Place one device onto each shelf and connect the corresponding AC
adaptor to each laptop.
Note:
No power will be supplied to the devices until the
front doors have been securely closed – this is a safety
feature to ensure no user comes into contact with mains voltage.

The printer module has been connected into the trolley and once you have
connected the trolley to the mains power it will be ready to use.
If you wish to use your own printer housed on the top of the trolley
a mains outlet has been provided at the rear of the trolley and also a
network socket (A network socket is an option or standard with Data
Transfer (DTM)).
Care should be taken when moving the trolley and under no
circumstances should the trolley be moved without disconnection of
the power sockets and/or network connection. The trolley should not be
moved with the printer on the top of the unit.
Alarm
If your MentorTM trolley is fitted with an alarm please refer to the Alarm
Manual for set up guidace.
Network Connectivity
If your trolley features network connectivity, you can plug the trolley into
your network by connecting a standard network cable into one of the
auxiliary points on the back of the trolley.
Data Transfer (DTM)
If your purchase includes DTM your trolley will be network ready (these
are the red network cables within your charging bays), you can update
all of your laptops simultaneously inside the trolley using Wake on LAN
soware.
• Make sure the trolley is connected to the network and switched on
• Plug each individual red DTM cable inside the trolley into the network
ports of each laptop and ensure that the trolley is switched on. If
you have a ChargeLine™ trolley (uses AC adaptors) close the trolley’s
doors before beginning the update.
• The laptops are now ready to receive updates
Docking Station
If you have purchased a docking station with your trolley then please refer
to the docking station user guide to fit and dock correctly.
Timer
If your laptop trolley has been fitted to include a timer, please refer to the
timer user manual provided at the time of purchase.
Trolley upgrades
The modular design of your Mentor™ means that as your needs change,
you may be able to upgrade or change the modules.
• Upgrade to accept new laptops/netbooks/other mobile ICT devices
• Add functionality (e.g. DTM, Wireless Access Point, docking station)
For all upgrades you will need your trolley’s serial number (found at the
rear of the trolley on a silver plate), then call the LapSafe® Support Team.

Recent guidance from the Health and Safety Executive regarding“Laptop computer charging trolleys safety
alert” requires interpretation from each manufacturer as regards to their product compliance. The HSE
statement can be found at: www.hse.gov.uk/services/education/safety121009.htm
CE Testing, Conformity and Declaration of LapSafe®
At LapSafe® we are proud to conrm that ALL of our electrical products, going back over ten years, have been thoroughly tested and
certied (by an authorised and INDEPENDENT testing house) and accordingly have been clearly CE marked.
Full CE compliance, which includes the requirements of LVD and EMC directives, is a STANDARD FEATURE of LapSafe®, as are many
more“built in” safety features. CE Marking can be found on the product serial number plate, usually at the lower rear of the cabinet.
CE Declaration of Conformity Certicate is issued with each product in the User Guide Pack.
You may obtain further copies of the certicate specic to your product and serial number, or any further information and advice,
upon request to our Customer support–
call direct 01787 226147 or FREEPHONE the switchboard on 0800 130
3456 or email [email protected].
Rest assured that your LapSafe® Product has been designed and built with Safety as the highest priority since we rst introduced
the concept of the“mobile laptop trolley” into the UK market in the last century. This is, indeed, why we are called “Lap SAFE”.
Residual Voltage
The HSE has raised a concern (having identied at least one particular manufacturer’s trolleys with this “characteristic”) that many
manufacturers’trolleys (if indeed not the vast majority), may have a momentary residual voltage on the pins of the mains plug and
that this could, if you touched the pins within a second or two of unplugging, result in an electric shock.
LapSafe® have been designed from the outset with safety internal circuitry as standard so as NOT to retain or present any signicant
residual voltage in this way. In fact, it is virtually impossible to get any such signicant electric shock from our cabinets in normal
use.
However, regardless of how safe any particular trolley may be, we endorse the recommendations for employing common sense
practise as a generic rule for any mobile electrical appliance, such as switching o the mains socket before unplugging the power
leads and NOT moving the trolleys without disconnecting and unplugging the power leads at both ends. Two of the wheels are
tted with locks as standard and should be kept locked as a reminder when power is connected and as a general safety rule as per
the user instructions supplied with each cabinet.
