To do this, connect a different, functioning electrical
appliance to the socket.
With operation over the vehicle-adapter:
• Check to see if the vehicle-adapter ² is correctly
connected to the Rapid Battery Charger and the
cigar-lighter socket.
• It is possible that the cigar-lighter only functions
with a switched-on vehicle ignition. If you are
unsure, consult the vehicle handbook.
