For notebook computer:
Step 1. Read the Safety and Warning information above.
Step 2. Connect the Adapter input power cable to the AC
socket of the Adapter (Picture 02a). Then plug the
other end of AC power cable to the wall outlet
(Picture 02b). For the first time use, the LCD
screen will show the default voltage of 12V within
3 seconds. The Blue LED light should flash
indicating the Adapter is in standby mode and
ready for use.
Step 3. Please refer to your notebook computer user
manual or check on the back of the notebook
computer to find the correct output voltage
requirement for your notebook computer. Start
selecting proper output voltage (12V, 15V, 16V,
18V (18/18.5V), 19V (19/19.5V), 20V (20/20.5V), 22V,
and 24V) on the Adapter by pushing the arrow
button for 3 seconds (Picture 03a). The
flashing voltage now can be adjusted. After
selecting the proper voltage, please wait for 5
seconds and the Adapter will memorize the
selected voltage as the new default voltage
setting.
Please Note!
Once output voltage is selected, the Adapter will automatically
memorize the new voltage as the default setting. If different
output voltage is needed, please make sure to adjust the
voltage by repeating Step 1 to 3 before plugging into different
machine.
Step 4. Choose correct tip connector to fit your notebook
power socket and connect it to the Adapter output
cable (Picture 04a). These tip connectors are
specially design with ridge so they can only be
plugged in one direction to the output cable. If you
have difficulty to properly plug in, please turn
around the tip connector.
Warning: DO NOT plug Tip L to HP Laptops.
Step 5. Connect the tip connector to the power socket of
your notebook (Picture 05a).
Step 6. Turn on your notebook and the Blue LED light
should become solid indicating the power is on
and ready for use.
For devices with USB interfaces such
as MP3, cell phones, iPod, iPhone,
iPad and more:
Step 1. Read the Safety and Warning information above.
Step 2. Please connect the USB Type A cable provided by
your USB device company to the USB port of the
Adapter.
Step 3. Connect the Adapter input power cable to the AC
socket of the Adapter (Picture u03a). Then plug
the other end of AC power cable to the wall outlet
(Picture u03b).
Step 4. Turn on and use your USB device.
