6. Utatuzi wa shida
If you encounter issues with your TOPDON TORNADO1200, refer to the table below for common problems and solutions.
| Tatizo | Sababu inayowezekana | Suluhisho |
|---|---|---|
| Chaja haiwashi. | Hakuna nguvu ya AC; sehemu ya kutoa umeme yenye hitilafu. | Check AC power connection; try a different outlet. |
| Charging indicator lights not active. | Incorrect battery connection; battery too deeply discharged. | Verify correct clamp connections (red to +, black to -); if battery is below 2V, it may not be recognized. |
| Charger shows error (e.g., reverse polarity). | Clampimeunganishwa vibaya. | Disconnect from AC, then reconnect clamps kwa usahihi. |
| Kuchaji huchukua muda mrefu sana. | Battery capacity is large; battery is heavily discharged; battery health is poor. | This is normal for large or deeply discharged batteries. If excessively long, consider battery replacement. |
| Chaja hupata joto wakati wa operesheni. | Operesheni ya kawaida. | Hii ni kawaida. Hakikisha kuna uingizaji hewa wa kutosha kuzunguka chaja. |
