Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your 9 Outlet Extender, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:

• Cleaning: Disconnect the extender from the wall outlet before cleaning. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe down the exterior. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol sprays.
• Storage: When not in use, store the extender in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
• Inspection: Periodically inspect the unit for any signs of damage, such as frayed wires, cracked casing, or loose prongs. If any damage is found, discontinue use immediately and contact customer support.
• Ventilation: Ensure the unit has adequate ventilation and is not covered by curtains, furniture, or other objects that could impede airflow.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your 9 Outlet Extender, please refer to the following common problems and solutions:

• No Power to Devices:
  • Ensure the extender is firmly plugged into a working wall outlet.
  • Check if the blue indicator light is illuminated. If not, the surge protection might have tripped due to an overload or power surge. Unplug all devices, then unplug and re-plug the extender.
  • Verify that the wall outlet itself is functioning by plugging in another device directly.
• Slow USB Charging:
  • Ensure your device's charging cable is not damaged and is properly connected.
  • The total USB output is 5V/3.1A. If multiple devices are connected, the charging speed may be distributed. Try charging one device at a time to see if the speed improves.
  • Some devices require specific charging protocols. Ensure your device is compatible with standard USB charging.
• Extender Feels Loose in Outlet:
  • While the swivel plug is designed for flexibility, ensure it is not excessively loose. If it consistently falls out or feels unstable, discontinue use and contact customer support.
  • Avoid placing heavy objects on the extender or pulling on connected cords, which can strain the connection.

If the problem persists after attempting these solutions, please contact customer support for further assistance.
