Resettable Fuse

In the event of an electrical overload, the PowerCube's resettable fuse will trip to protect connected devices. To reset the fuse, first unplug all devices from the PowerCube. Then, locate the small reset button or switch on the PowerCube (often indicated by "RESET FUSE") and press it. Reconnect your devices one by one to identify the source of the overload if it recurs.

6. Maintenance

• Cleaning: Disconnect the PowerCube from the wall outlet before cleaning. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the exterior. Do not use liquid cleaners or abrasive materials.
• Storage: When not in use, store the PowerCube in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture.

7. Troubleshooting

• No Power: If the PowerCube is not providing power, ensure it is securely plugged into a functioning wall outlet. Check if the resettable fuse has tripped (refer to Operating Instructions for resetting).
• Slow USB Charging: Ensure your device's charging cable is fully inserted into the USB port. If charging is still slow, try using a different USB cable or reducing the number of devices charging simultaneously.
• Overheating: If the PowerCube feels excessively hot, immediately unplug all devices and disconnect the PowerCube from the wall outlet. Check the total wattage of connected devices to ensure it does not exceed the maximum rating (1875W).
