Troubleshooting
Cooling pad not powering on
Ensure the USB cable is securely connected to both the cooling pad and a functional USB port on your laptop. Try a different USB port or an external USB power adapter if available.
Fans are not spinning
Check the USB connection. If the fans are obstructed by dust, disconnect the power and carefully clean the fan blades and grills. Ensure the laptop's USB port is providing sufficient power.
Laptop still overheating
Ensure the laptop is properly seated on the cooling pad and that the laptop's own air intake vents are not blocked. Clean the cooling pad's fans and filters regularly. Consider if the laptop's thermal load exceeds the cooling pad's capabilities.
LED lights are not working
Verify the USB connection. The LED lights are powered by the USB connection, so if the fans are working, the lights should also function. Check for any visible damage to the LED strip or cable.
