Frequently Asked Questions - PA248U5 TARGUS

How do I use the Targus PA248U5 laptop cooler?

Place the cooler on a flat, hard surface. Connect the built-in USB cable to a USB port on your laptop. Then place your laptop on the cooler, aligning the vents for optimal airflow. The fans will start automatically.

Does the PA248U5 require any drivers or software?

No, the cooler is plug-and-play. It draws power and operates through the USB connection without additional drivers.

Is this cooler compatible with my laptop?

The PA248U5 is designed for laptops up to 17 inches. It fits most standard laptops. Check the dimensions: 14.3 x 10.6 inches to ensure your laptop sits completely on the cooler.

How do I clean the laptop cooler?

Unplug the cooler and use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the surface. For the fan vents, you can use compressed air to remove dust. Avoid using liquid cleaners.

Can I use the cooler on soft surfaces like a bed or pillow?

No, the cooler requires a firm, flat surface to ensure proper airflow. Using it on soft surfaces may block the fan intakes and cause overheating.

What is the noise level of the fans?

The fans operate quietly at about 20 dBA, making them suitable for quiet environments such as offices or libraries.

Can I replace the USB cable if it gets damaged?

The USB cable is permanently attached. If damaged, the cooler may need replacement. Contact Targus support for options.

Why are my laptop's USB ports not working after connecting the cooler?

Ensure the USB cable is fully inserted. The cooler draws power, but if your laptop's USB port can't supply enough power, the fans may not spin. Try using a different USB port or a powered USB hub.
