Setup

1. Unpacking: Carefully remove the extension lead from its packaging. Retain packaging for future storage or disposal.
2. Placement: Position the extension lead on a dry, flat, and stable surface, away from direct heat sources, water, or flammable materials. Ensure the cable is not a tripping hazard.
3. Connection: Plug the extension lead's main plug into a suitable wall socket. Ensure the wall socket is easily accessible and in good condition.

Operating Instructions

2. Connecting Devices: Insert the plugs of your electrical appliances into the available sockets on the extension lead.
