    Getting Started

    There are ventilation holes through the base and on the rear of the cabinet, and care must be taken that none of these holes are obstructed. Select a location where there is sufficient airspace for the cabinet to ventilate. Your ChargeLiteTM should not be left within a cupboard or small closed space when charging, because the recirculation of its own warm air could lead to unnecessarily high temperatures for periods of time.
     
    With your ChargeLite™ in its working position, the mains lead can be fitted into the mains socket at the rear of the right side of the cabinet and taken to an available wall socket to be plugged in and switched on.
     
    The front doors of your ChargeLite™  are unlocked using the key with the white key cover, and the rear door has a separate key with a black key cover.
     
    The front doors are for everyday working access to the cabinet. The key can be removed once the door is open, this will prevent the door from closing fully whilst it is unlocked.
     
    The rear door should not be considered as day-to-day access to the cabinet, once opened you will see a safety earth lead with a push-on fixing on the rear door which must be disconnected before the door can be fully removed. Once the connector has been pulled apart, the door can be lifted out of the slots along the bottom edge and placed to one side. For your safety, please ensure that you reconnect the earth lead when replacing the rear door.

    Charge Only Set Up

    Please ensure the cabinet is unplugged when you are loading AC adaptors in the ChargeLite™ 

    1. Remove the rear door as described in the Getting Started.
    2. You will find power strips for your AC adaptors in the back; plug your AC adaptor into a plug socket and load the AC adaptor block onto the relevant shelf.
    3. Some AC adaptors can be described as ‘in-plug’ where they plug directly into a socket and the charging lead goes directly to the device, and others can be described as ‘in-line’ where they have a mains lead between the power socket and the AC adaptor and then a charging lead going to the device.
    4. For ‘in-plug’ AC adaptors simply pass the charging lead onto a shelf.
    5. If you are using ‘in-line’ AC adaptors you have the choice to pass the mains onto the shelf and place the adaptor on the shelf with your devices or to leave the AC adaptor in the rear compartment and just pass the charging lead onto the shelf.
    6. We provide both cable ties and cable clips to help with cable management and we recommend that the charging lead is secured to the shelf in a suitable position in order to prevent it ‘working’ its way off the shelf.

    3. Do not leave keys in the doors locks when moving the trolley

    4. Do not remove doors

    5. Do not leave trolleys in the view of a window for security

    6. Do not try to modify the trolley in anyway without contacting LapSafe® first to check that it is safe to do so

    Disconnecting your Unit from the Mains Supply

    Your ChargeLite™️ unit is connected to the mains supply via a mains lead. There is an IEC connector at one end (plugs into the unit), and a 13amp mains plug at the other (plugs into the wall mains outlet).

    Before carrying out any cleaning, accessing the service area, or moving a mobile unit from one location to the next, disconnect the mains power.

    13 amp Mains Plug (Switched)

    Switch OFF the outlet and remove the plug from the socket. If access to the service area is required, you can only gain access by removing the IEC plug to ensure the unit is not plugged in. 

    Cleaning of fans

    Depending on the model, your ChargeLite™️ unit may have thermostatically controlled fan(s) in the rear panel. Under normal operating temperatures, the fan is off. The fan will come on when the unit exceeds a preset temperature and continue to run until the temperature lowers below its lower set point. If the temperature rises, the unit will shut down automatically and sound an audible alarm. 
    Over time, dust and debris can partially block the fan and ventilation holes, preventing maximum airflow and causing the unit not to cool as expected.

    Therefore, it is recommended that the fan blades and ventilation holes be checked and cleaned at least once every three months or if you suspect an increase in normal running temperature or if the unit shuts down.

    To clean the fan and ventilation holes, carefully agitate the dust with a suitable dry brush and extract the loose particles with a vacuum cleaner. Additionally, the ventilation holes can be wiped with a "damp" (not wet) cloth. Do not use a damp (or wet) cloth on the fan housing, as the primary charging electrics are behind.

    Health and Safety

    The ChargeLite™ Range manufactured by LapSafe® have been thoroughly tested and certified by an authorised and INDEPENDENT notified testing house before sale.

    Full CE and UKCA  compliance, which includes the requirements of LVD and EMC directives, is a STANDARD FEATURE of any solution manufactured by LapSafe®, as are many more built in safety features.

    CE and UKCA Marking can be found on the product serial number plate, usually at the lower rear of the cabinet.

    A CE and UKCA Declaration of Conformity Certificate is issued and can be found here

    Please be advised of the following safety advice:
    At no time is the rear service door of the trolley to be opened by anyone other than an authorised person.

    At no time should anyone attempt to physically lift the trolley, as this could cause injury to the persons concerned and even damage to the trolley, which will invalidate the manufacturer’s warranty. Should the movement of the trolley require this type of action, you are advised to seek advice from the authorised person. In such circumstances, the matter should be referred to LapSafe® for consultation and advice.

    • Always apply the wheel brakes when the trolley is either parked or not in use.
    • Disconnect the mains supply and stow the mains cable into either the cable management provided or on top of the unit before moving.
    • Always ensure that the main power lead does not present a trip hazard when connected to the mains.
    • Always ensure that the main power lead is fully extended when connected to the mains.
    • The trolley should only be moved on horizontal surfaces.
    • Always ensure that the trolley NEVER impedes full and free pedestrian access to all fire routes, fire exits and normal access routes.
    • NEVER allow unauthorised access to the service doors at the rear of the unit.

    The above is not an exhaustive list. Contact LapSafe® should you have any concerns.
