4. Setup Instructions
- Verify Device Compatibility: Ensure your device requires a 24V DC input and its current draw is 5A or less. The power input port should have an outer diameter of 5.5mm and an inner core diameter of 2.5mm or 2.1mm. The inner core polarity must be positive (+), and the exterior polarity negative (-).
- Connect DC Output: Insert the DC output barrel connector (5.5mm x 2.5mm or 5.5mm x 2.1mm) from the ALITOVE adapter into the corresponding power input port on your electronic device.
- Connect AC Input: Plug the AC input cable into the ALITOVE power adapter.
- Connect to Power Outlet: Insert the AC plug into a standard 100V-240V wall outlet.
- Power On: The adapter will power on automatically, indicated by a blue LED light. Your device should now receive power.

5. Operating Instructions
Once connected, the ALITOVE 24V 5A AC/DC Power Adapter operates automatically. It provides a stable 24V DC output to your connected device.
Usage Recommendations:
- For optimal performance and longevity, it is recommended to use the adapter at approximately 80% of its full load capacity. For this 120W (5A) adapter, this means powering devices that draw up to 4A (96W).
- The adapter is suitable for a wide range of 24V DC devices, including LED strip lights, wireless routers, ADSL modems, hubs, switches, security cameras, printers, LCD monitors, and massage chairs.

6. Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and proper functioning of your ALITOVE power adapter, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: Disconnect the adapter from the power outlet and your device before cleaning. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the exterior. Avoid using liquid cleaners or solvents.
- Storage: Store the adapter in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, moisture, and extreme temperatures when not in use.
- Cable Care: Avoid bending or crimping the power cables excessively. Do not place heavy objects on the cables.
- Inspection: Periodically inspect the adapter and cables for any signs of damage, such as frayed wires, cracks, or loose connections. If damage is found, discontinue use and replace the adapter.

7. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your ALITOVE power adapter, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:
- No Power Output:
- Ensure the AC input cable is securely plugged into both the adapter and the wall outlet.
- Verify the wall outlet is functional by testing it with another device.
- Check if the DC output connector is firmly inserted into your device's power port.
- Confirm that your device's power requirements (voltage and current) match the adapter's specifications.
- Device Not Functioning Correctly:
- Ensure the device's voltage is exactly 24V DC. Lower or higher voltage can cause malfunction or damage.
- Verify the device's current draw is within the adapter's capacity (5A max, ideally ≤ 4A). If the device draws too much current, the adapter may not supply enough power or could be damaged.
- Check the polarity of your device's input port. The adapter's inner core is positive (+), and the outer is negative (-). Incorrect polarity can damage the device.
- Adapter Overheating:
- Ensure the adapter is not covered or placed in an enclosed space that restricts airflow.
- Reduce the load on the adapter by disconnecting high-power devices if multiple are connected via a splitter (not included).
- If overheating persists, discontinue use and contact support.
8. Safety Information
Your ALITOVE power adapter is equipped with several safety features to protect your devices and ensure safe operation. Adhere to the following safety guidelines:
- Automatic Overload Cut-off: Protects against excessive current draw.
- Over Voltage Cut-off: Prevents damage from voltage spikes.
- Automatic Thermal Cut-off: Shuts down the adapter if it reaches an unsafe temperature.
- Short Circuit Protection: Safeguards against short circuits in the connected device or cables.
- Do not expose the adapter to water, rain, or excessive moisture.
- Do not disassemble or modify the adapter. This voids the warranty and can lead to electric shock or fire.
- Keep the adapter away from heat sources and flammable materials.
- Use only with compatible devices as specified in this manual.
