How to Install Lind Electronics Power Adapter
Installing and using the Lind Electronics Power Adapter is straightforward. Follow these steps to ensure a safe, reliable charging experience in your vehicle:
- Before you begin, turn off the vehicle and engine if possible, or park in a stable location. This minimizes any risk while you connect the adapter and verify proper operation.
- Insert the CIG plug into your vehicle’s 12V outlet (cigarette lighter socket). If there is resistance, rotate gently and ensure the outlet is clean and free of debris to establish a solid electrical connection.
- Connect a USB-C PD capable cable to the USB-C output on the Lind Electronics Power Adapter. If your device uses a separate USB-C charging cable, attach it to the adapter first and then to the device for a secure, best-practice connection.
- Power on the vehicle or switch the ignition to the accessory position if your device requires engine power to draw the 11-16V input. Your USB-C device should begin negotiating PD and begin charging once a stable voltage is detected.
- Monitor charging behavior on the device screen. If charging does not commence, unplug and reinsert the USB-C cable, or try a different PD-enabled cable. Avoid running power-hungry devices for extended periods if the vehicle’s electrical system is already under heavy load.
- When you’re finished, remove the USB-C cable and then unplug the CIG plug. Store the adapter in a safe, dry place within the vehicle to protect it from moisture and accidental damage.
