5. Setup

5.1. Remote Control Battery Installation

1. Locate the battery compartment on the back of the remote control.
2. Open the compartment cover.
3. Insert the required batteries (typically 1x CR2032 or 2x AAA, not specified in product data, please check the remote itself) ensuring correct polarity (+/-).
4. Close the battery compartment cover securely.

5.2. Socket Placement

Plug the outdoor sockets into a suitable outdoor power outlet. Ensure the location is protected from direct heavy rainfall and snow, and that the protective cover can be securely closed over any connected appliance plugs.

5.3. Pairing the Sockets with the Remote Control (Learning Code)

The sockets and remote control may come pre-paired. If not, or if you wish to change the assigned channels, follow these steps:

1. Plug the outdoor socket into a power outlet. The indicator light on the socket should be off.
2. Press and hold the small 'Learn' button (often located near the indicator light or on the side) on the socket for approximately 3-5 seconds until the indicator light begins to flash slowly.
3. Within 10 seconds of the light flashing, press the desired 'ON' button for the channel you wish to assign (e.g., 'A ON') on your remote control.
4. The indicator light on the socket will stop flashing and remain solid for a moment, then turn off, indicating successful pairing.
5. Repeat this process for each socket and desired channel (A, B, C, or D). You can assign multiple sockets to the same channel or assign each socket to a different channel.

6. Operating Instructions

Once the sockets are paired, operating them is straightforward:

• To turn on an appliance: Press the corresponding 'ON' button (A, B, C, or D) on the remote control for the channel assigned to that socket.
• To turn off an appliance: Press the corresponding 'OFF' button (A, B, C, or D) on the remote control for the channel assigned to that socket.
• Ensure the appliance connected to the socket is switched to its 'ON' position if it has its own power switch.

The remote control has an operating range of up to 40 meters in open areas. Obstacles such as walls, trees, or other electronic devices may reduce this range.

7. Maintenance

• Cleaning: Disconnect the sockets from power before cleaning. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the surfaces. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Battery Replacement: If the remote control's range decreases or it stops responding, replace the batteries. Follow the instructions in section 5.1.
• Storage: When not in use for extended periods, store the sockets and remote control in a dry, cool place, away from direct sunlight.

8. Troubleshooting

• Socket not responding to remote:
  • Check if the remote control batteries are correctly installed and not depleted. Replace if necessary.
  • Ensure the socket is properly plugged into a live power outlet.
  • Re-pair the socket with the remote control following the 'Learning Code' instructions in section 5.3.
  • Ensure you are within the operating range (up to 40m) and there are no significant obstructions.
• Appliance not turning on/off:
  • Verify the appliance itself is functional and its power switch is in the 'ON' position.
  • Check if the appliance is drawing more power than the socket's maximum load capacity (see Specifications).
• Reduced remote control range:
  • Replace the remote control batteries.
  • Minimize obstructions between the remote and the socket.
  • Avoid placing the sockets near large metal objects or other sources of radio interference.
