rack which should be between 12.5V* and 30V DC with wiring sufficient to carry up to 5A at 12 
volts. If these parameters are not met the K8 will not charge correctly if at all. If the supply is poor 
you may see/hear random red status LED flashes and beeps from the K8. The supply must be 
rectified to prevent non charging of the K8 and possible damage to the unit.

*To initiate charging, the K8 must see a voltage of 12.5v DC approx, once started the  voltage 
can be allowed to fall to around 12v, below this the unit will stop charging to preserve the 
supplying battery, e.g for vehicle starting etc.
 
b) Check the 5A fuse in the cigar lighter plug by unscrewing the end cap of the plug and removing 
the fuse to view whether it’s blown or not (Note – take care not to lose the spring and other small 
parts). If blown, locate the source of the problem, replace the fuse and try again.
 
c) Check the cigar plug connection is good with the socket it is connected to.
 
d) Check the docking charge rack terminals haven’t been damaged through misuse. They should 
spring back against the front of the charge rack. To check, remove the K8 from the rack, press the 
blue buttons on the front face then release them, the two spring terminals should sit up against 
the grey front of the rack.
