AC Power
AC power has the highest priority. When AC power is present, Trilogy Evo Universal uses that power to run the device and to charge the detachable
and internal batteries.
To use AC power:
1.
Plug the socket end of the AC power cord into Trilogy Evo Universal's power inlet.
2.
Plug the pronged end of the power cord into an electrical outlet that is not controlled by a wall switch.
3.
Secure the cord to the device using the retention clip.
4.
Verify Trilogy Evo Universal is using AC power. You should see the green LED light next to the power button. If you do not see this light,
contact Philips customer service.
Periodically inspect the power cord for damage or signs of wear. Discontinue use and replace if damaged.
