5. Operating Instructions

Once installed, the Sleek Socket provides six additional outlets (three on each 8-foot cord) for powering your devices. Simply plug your appliances, lamps, or other electronics into the 3-outlet power strips at the end of each flat cord.

  • The ultra-thin design allows furniture to sit closer to the wall, maximizing space.
  • The flat cords are up to 90% thinner than traditional plugs and cords, blending seamlessly with your decor.

6. Maintenance

  • Regularly inspect the cords and power strips for any signs of damage, fraying, or overheating. Discontinue use if any damage is observed.
  • Keep the unit and cords clean by wiping with a dry cloth. Do not use liquid cleaners.
  • Ensure the adhesive clips remain securely attached to prevent cords from becoming loose.

7. Troubleshooting

  • Issue: Sleek Socket does not fit into the wall outlet.
    Solution: Verify that your wall outlet is a standard duplex type with the round ground pin located below the flat pins. Refer to Image 2 for compatibility.
  • Issue: Devices are not receiving power.
    Solution: Ensure the Sleek Socket is fully inserted into the wall outlet. Check that the total power consumption of connected devices does not exceed 1625 Watts.
  • Issue: Cords are not staying securely attached to the wall.
    Solution: Reapply or replace the adhesive cord clips and strips. Ensure the wall surface is clean and dry before application.
