• Charging Devices: Connect your devices to the AC outlets or the USB-A/USB-C ports for power and charging. The smart USB ports automatically detect and deliver optimal charging current.

6. Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and safe operation of your TROND Prime V Surge Protector:

• Cleaning: Disconnect the power strip from the wall outlet before cleaning. Use a dry, soft cloth to wipe the surface. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosols.
• Inspection: Periodically inspect the power cord and the unit for any signs of damage, such as frayed wires, cracks, or loose connections. If any damage is found, discontinue use immediately and contact customer support.
• Storage: When not in use for extended periods, store the power strip in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.

7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your TROND Prime V Surge Protector, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:

• No Power to Devices:
  • Ensure the power strip's ON/OFF switch is in the 'ON' position and the 'Power' indicator light is illuminated.
  • Check if the wall outlet is functioning by plugging in another device directly.
  • Verify that the power strip's plug is fully inserted into the wall outlet.
• Devices Not Charging via USB:
  • Ensure the USB cable is securely connected to both the power strip and your device.
  • Try a different USB port or cable to rule out a faulty connection.
  • Confirm your device is compatible with USB charging.
• 'Protected' Indicator Light Off:
  • If the 'Protected' (green) light is off, it indicates that the surge protection components may have been compromised due to a significant power surge. The power strip may still function as a multi-outlet extension cord, but surge protection is no longer active. It is recommended to replace the unit to ensure continued protection.
• Overload Protection Triggered:
  • If the power strip stops providing power, it might be due to an overload. Disconnect some devices to reduce the load.
  • Locate the circuit breaker reset button (usually on the side or back of the unit) and press it to reset the power strip.
