4) Verify the ventilator is being powered by the vehicle battery, through the Automobile Cigarette
Lighter Adapter.
• The vehicle battery is powering the ventilator if the EXTERNAL POWER LED shows green.
• An amber EXTERNAL POWER LED and/or a POWER LOW alarm indicates the external
power level is low.
Immediately reconnect the ventilator to an alternate power source (i.e. the AC Adapter or
External Battery) until the cause of the problem (Automobile Cigarette Lighter Adapter
cable connection or the vehicle battery or power outlet), has been identified and corrected.
• A POWER LOST alarm indicates external power voltage has dropped below the usable
level and the ventilator has switched to internal power.
Immediately reconnect the ventilator to an alternate power source (i.e. the AC Adapter or
External Battery) until the cause of the problem (Automobile Cigarette Lighter Adapter
cable connection or the vehicle battery or power outlet), has been identified and corrected.
NOTE
The Automobile Cigarette Lighter Adapter contains a fuse and is designed to protect the LTV

Series
ventilators from typical automobile power transients. The green LED on the adapter indicates the
adapter is connected and operating correctly. If the LED does not light, the adapter may not be
properly seated in the outlet or the fuse may be blown. Try reseating or turning the adapter to create
a better connection or change the fuse (see Chapter 14 - Replacing the Automobile Adapter Fuse).
REMARQUE
L’adaptateur pour allume-cigare contient un fusible et est conçu pour protéger les ventilateurs de la
série LTV
®
contre les transitoires d’alimentation des automobiles. Le voyant DEL vert de l’adaptateur
indique que l’adaptateur est branché et qu’il fonctionne adéquatement. Si le voyant ne s’allume pas,
l’adaptateur n’est peut-être pas bien installé dans la prise ou le fusible est peut-être sauté. Essayer de
replacer ou de tourner l’adaptateur de manière à obtenir un meilleur raccordement ou changer le fusible
(se reporter au Chapitre 14 – Remplacement du fusible de l’adaptateur).
While the ventilator is connected to the Automobile Cigarette Lighter Adapter, the internal battery is
being continuously charged.
