Precautions For The Use Of Car Accessories Cigarette Lighter
Method/Step
1. Avoid using overpowered electrical appliances on the cigarette lighter
The general withstand power of the cigarette lighter is 120W. Exceeding this value can easily cause the cigarette lighter to overload and cause various hazards such as burning the cigarette lighter. Therefore, when using an external device, you must see the power clearly and try to use it with less than 120W.
2. Use the cigarette lighter for a long time to start the vehicle as much as possible
If you want to use a cigarette lighter for a long time, or if the device has a large power, you need to start the car engine to increase the power, so that it will not consume the car battery power. Because the cigarette lighter in the car is all DC power taken from the car's generator, as long as the car's engine is running, it will drive the generator to generate electricity, and the electricity used in the car comes from this. If the vehicle is not started, the battery power is directly consumed, which will easily cause the battery voltage to be too low, it is difficult to start the car, and the equipment cannot work normally.
3. Reasonable plug in and out of the cigarette lighter
The cigarette lighter has a separate safety device. The correct method of use is to insert and pull it out vertically. Do not pull out while shaking. Frequent shaking can easily cause the cigarette lighter to loosen and short-circuit the safety of the cigarette lighter, and it is easy to burn the insurance and external equipment.
4. Unplug the external device in time after parking
When the vehicle is turned off, the external device on the cigarette lighter should be unplugged as soon as possible, otherwise when the vehicle is started, the device will be easily burnt under the impact of high current, especially MP3 and U disk are prone to problems. Therefore, unplug it after parking, and plug it in after the car is started.
5. Frequently clean the heating wire of electric cigarette butts
Since the smoke needs to touch the heating wire when lighting the cigarette, be careful not to press the heating wire too hard. If tobacco and other things fall into the heating wire, it must be cleaned in time to extend the service life of the cigarette lighter.
