Before attempting any troubleshooting techniques, you should carefully examine the physical condition of the device.
Do not use a charger or AC adapter that shows damage to the packaging or power cord. Such damage may result in fire.
If the problem is with the charger, you may notice a burning plastic smell when the device is plugged in, or you may notice a physical problem with the device. The charger may have a strange smell the first time you use it, but the smell should disappear quickly and should not recur in the future.
