Operating Instructions

Once the power strip is plugged in, you can begin connecting your devices:

• AC Outlets: Plug your electronic devices (laptops, monitors, lamps, etc.) directly into any of the 8 AC outlets. The widely spaced design ensures that even bulky power adapters can fit without obstructing other outlets.
• USB Charging: Connect your smartphones, tablets, smartwatches, or other USB-powered devices to the 2 USB-A ports or the 1 USB-C port. The intelligent charging technology will detect your device and deliver the optimal charging current.
• Power Indicator: A red "Protected" indicator light will illuminate when the surge protection is active and functioning correctly. If this light is off, the surge protection may have been compromised, and the unit should be replaced.
• Overload Protection: The power strip features an overload protection switch. In case of an electrical overload, the switch will trip, cutting power to all connected devices to prevent damage. To reset, unplug some devices, wait a moment, and then press the switch back in.
• Device Shelf: Use the integrated device shelf to prop up your smartphone or tablet while it charges, keeping your workspace tidy.
