4. Setup
- Uncoil the power cord completely.
- Plug the flat wall plug into a standard 3-prong grounded AC outlet.
- Ensure the power switch on the power strip is in the 'OFF' position before connecting devices.
- Connect your electronic devices to the AC outlets or USB ports.
- Flip the power switch to the 'ON' position. The 'SURGE PROTECTED' LED indicator should illuminate green, indicating active surge protection.
Mounting Instructions (Optional)
The power strip can be mounted to a wall or desk using the two keyhole slots on the back:
- Measure the distance between the two keyhole slots on the back of the power strip.
- Mark two corresponding points on the desired mounting surface.
- Install two screws (not included) into the marked points, leaving the screw heads slightly protruding.
- Align the keyhole slots with the screw heads and slide the power strip down to secure it.

5. Operating Instructions
Once the power strip is plugged in and the power switch is ON, you can use the outlets and USB ports:
- AC Outlets: Plug your devices directly into any of the 5 AC outlets. Ensure the total power consumption does not exceed 1875W.
- USB Ports: Connect your USB-powered devices (e.g., smartphones, tablets, smartwatches) to the 3 USB-A ports using their respective charging cables. The power strip will automatically detect and deliver the optimal charging speed up to 2.4A per port.
- Surge Protected Indicator: The green LED light labeled 'SURGE PROTECTED' indicates that the surge protection feature is active and protecting your devices. If this light is off, the surge protection has been consumed or is no longer functional, and the unit should be replaced.

6. Maintenance
- Always unplug the power strip from the wall outlet before cleaning.
- Wipe the exterior with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosols.
- Keep the power strip and its outlets free from dust and debris.
- Regularly inspect the power cord and plug for any signs of damage. If damaged, discontinue use and replace the unit.
7. Troubleshooting
- No power to devices:
- Ensure the power strip is securely plugged into a working wall outlet.
- Check if the power switch on the power strip is in the 'ON' position.
- Verify that the total power consumption of connected devices does not exceed 1875W. The overload protector may have tripped. If so, unplug some devices, then press the reset button (usually integrated with the power switch) to restore power.
- USB ports not charging:
- Ensure the power strip is receiving power.
- Check the USB cable for damage and ensure it is properly connected to both the device and the power strip.
- Some devices may require specific charging protocols not supported by standard USB-A ports (e.g., Quick Charge).
- 'SURGE PROTECTED' indicator light is off:
- This indicates that the surge protection component has absorbed a significant surge and is no longer providing protection. The power strip will still function as a multi-outlet extension cord, but your devices will no longer be protected from future surges. It is recommended to replace the unit for continued surge protection.
