Setup Instructions
Follow these steps to properly set up your AC power cord:
- Inspect the Cord: Before use, visually inspect the entire length of the power cord for any signs of damage, cuts, or fraying. Do not use the cord if any damage is observed.
- Identify Connectors: One end of the cord has a standard two-prong US plug (NEMA 1-15P), and the other end has a C13 connector.
- Connect to Device: Insert the C13 connector firmly into the compatible power inlet of your device (e.g., AmScope 40X-2500X LED Biological Binocular Compound Microscope). Ensure a snug fit.
- Connect to Power Outlet: Plug the two-prong US plug into a standard, grounded 120V AC wall outlet. Ensure the outlet is easily accessible.
- Verify Connection: Confirm that both ends of the cord are securely connected before powering on your device.

Operating Instructions
The OMNIHIL AC Power Cord is a passive component designed to transmit electrical power. Its operation is straightforward:
- Once properly connected to both the device and a power outlet, the cord facilitates the flow of AC power to your compatible equipment.
- Ensure the device connected to the power cord is rated for the voltage and current supplied by your wall outlet.
- The 8-foot length provides flexibility in device placement, allowing for convenient setup without excessive strain on the cord or connectors.
Maintenance and Care
Proper maintenance extends the life of your power cord and ensures safe operation:
- Cleaning: Disconnect the power cord from both the device and the wall outlet before cleaning. Wipe the cord with a dry, soft cloth. Do not use liquid cleaners or immerse the cord in water.
- Storage: When not in use, coil the cord loosely. Avoid tight coiling or kinking, which can damage the internal wires. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
- Handling: Always grasp the plug or connector when inserting or removing the cord. Never pull the cord by the cable itself, as this can damage the connections.
- Avoid Overloading: Do not connect the cord to devices that exceed its rated capacity.
- Environmental Conditions: Keep the cord away from water, excessive heat sources, and sharp objects.
Troubleshooting
If you experience issues with your OMNIHIL AC Power Cord, consider the following:
- No Power to Device:
- Ensure both ends of the power cord are securely plugged into the device and the wall outlet.
- Check if the wall outlet is functional by plugging in another known working device.
- Verify that the device itself is powered on and functioning correctly.
- Inspect the power cord for any visible damage. If damaged, discontinue use immediately.
- Loose Connection:
- If the cord feels loose at either the device or the wall outlet, gently re-insert it to ensure a firm connection.
- Avoid bending or twisting the cord near the connectors.
If troubleshooting steps do not resolve the issue, please refer to the Warranty and Support section.
