Using the Car Charger

General precautions

• For most vehicles, the engine must be running to get power to the
cigarette lighter.
• Do not expose the car charger to excessive heat, moisture, or gasoline.
• Do not disassemble the unit or attempt to replace internal parts.
• Do not allow children to operate or play with the cord.
• Unplug the charger after use.
• The vehicle's power source must be within 10 to 30 V DC to function
properly. A built-in fuse with a rating of 1.5A offers protection to the
device being charged. Do not replace fuse with anything other than a
1.5A fuse.
To install the dashboard mount:
Start the vehicle's engine before inserting the 12V DC Car Charger
1
into the cigarette lighter socket. A small LED will light to indicate that
power is active.
To charge the PDA only: Insert the power plug into your PDA for
2
charging.
To charge the GPS only: Insert the power plug into your GPS receiver
3
for charging.
To charge both the PDA and GPS: Insert the GPS Charger Cable with
4
the Y-connector supplied into your PDA. Then insert the opposite end
into your GPS receiver.
The 12V DC charger can now be inserted into the Y-connector for
charging of both devices.
