6. Manutenzjoni u Kura

  • Żomm l-apparat nadif u niexef. Evita l-espożizzjoni għall-umdità jew temperaturi estremi.
  • Handle the Type-C connectors with care to prevent bending or damage. The reinforced design improves durability, but excessive force can still cause issues.
  • Store the tester in a safe place when not in use to prevent physical damage.

7 Issolvi l-problemi

  • Il-wiri ma jixgħelx: Ensure the tester is correctly connected between a powered source and a device. If the source or device is faulty, the tester may not receive power.
  • Vol mhux preċiżtagQari elettroniku/Kurrenti: Perform the voltage calibration procedure as described in Section 5. Ensure all connections are secure.
  • Temperature Warning (Red Icon): If the temperature display turns red and flashes (above 45°C), immediately disconnect the tester and connected devices. Allow them to cool down before resuming use. This indicates potential overheating.
  • Loose Type-C Port: While the Type-C interface is reinforced, repeated rough handling can still cause wear. Ensure gentle insertion and removal of cables. If the port becomes excessively loose and affects functionality, contact customer support.
