Frequently asked questions

• How many devices can the Nokia Pro Car Charger P6106 charge simultaneously, safely?
  The USB-A port, the USB-C port and the two cigarette lighter sockets can be used simultaneously.  The supported total maximum wattage load of the devices connected to the Nokia Pro Car Charger P6106 is 120W (for cars) or 240W (for vans, trucks).
• Can fast-charging damage a smartphone’s battery or shorten its lifespan?
  No. Smartphones have a complete set of power management protocols. In fast-charging mode, high-power charging is not maintained throughout. Instead, the power fluctuates to minimize potential damage to the battery.  
• Which types of car, truck or van is the Nokia Pro Car Charger P6106 compatible with?
  The Nokia Pro Car Charger P6106 is compatible with all kinds of cars, trucks or vans with a 12V or 24V auxiliary power outlet.
• What is the function of the LED display?
  The LED displays the car, truck or van’s battery’s voltage. When it’s lower than 11.6V (cars) or lower than 23.2V (trucks or vans), it is recommended that you get your battery checked.  
• When using the Nokia Pro Car Charger P6106, will it cause damage to the car’s fuse?
  No. If an abnormality occurs, the car charger has been designed to protect the vehicle by failing first, so the Nokia Pro Car Charger P6106 will stop working and prevent any damage to the vehicle.     
• Will the Nokia Pro Car Charger P6106 interfere with other electronic devices while during operation?
  No, the car charger's electromagnetic signal conforms to international standards and will not cause interference to other electronic devices.
• How do I activate fast-charging on the Nokia Pro Car Charger P6106?
  When the car charger and smartphone support the same fast-charge protocol, as well as the charging cable also supporting fast charging, it will then be activated. However, it does not support fast charge when the USB-A and USB-C are in use simultaneously. The Nokia Pro Car Charger P6106 supported fast-charging protocols include USB-IF PD3.0/PD2.0, Qualcomm QC3.0/QC2.0 and Huawei SCP/FCP.
• Why is my phone not charging when connected to the Nokia Pro Car Charger P6106?
  First, check that the charging cable is properly connected to the phone socket. If it is, then check whether there is any damage to the charging cable. Finally, try connecting it to another device. If it still won’t charge, please contact our service department for further assistance. Contact information of our servicing partners can be found at the “power” section at bottom of our support page: Please visit www.nokia.com/shop/support.
• When charging my phone, why do I get a pop-up message that reads: “Accessory may not be supported”?
  This usually occurs with an iPhone when you are either not using an original Apple charging cable or there’s dirt on the cable’s Lightning Cable connector. Try switching back to the original Apple charging cable or removing any dirt from the connector. You should now be able to resume charging your device.
