8. Troubleshooting

The appliance is not turning on 

•  Check the power supply. 
•  Check whether the plug and the socket have a good connection. 
•  If you have purchased an additional 12V adaptor with a cigarette end, check whether 

the fuse requires replacing. This is located inside the cigarette end of the 12V adaptor. 

Follow the ‘Replacing the fuse plug’ section at the bottom of page 13 if you require a 

new fuse.

breaker button has popped out, press it back in.
