3. Setup

- Insert the adapter into the wall outlet.

Important Note: This adapter does not convert voltage. Ensure your devices are dual voltage (100-240V) or worldwide voltage compatible. If your device is single voltage (e.g., 120V or 125V) and incompatible with the destination country's voltage, you may need a separate voltage converter.
4. Operating Instructions
Once the adapter is securely plugged into a wall outlet, you can begin charging your devices using the available ports and the universal AC outlet.
- Universal AC Outlet: Plug your device's power cord directly into the universal AC outlet on the front of the adapter.
- USB-C Port (PD 70W): Connect your USB-C compatible device to the dedicated USB-C port for Power Delivery (PD) fast charging.
- Retractable USB-C Cable (PD 70W): Pull out the integrated 65cm USB-C cable and connect it to your USB-C device for convenient fast charging. To retract, pull the cable slightly further, then release to allow it to coil back into the adapter.
- USB-A Ports: Use the QC 3.0 USB-A port for Quick Charge compatible devices and the standard 5V/1A USB-A port for other USB-powered devices.

5. Maintenance
- Cleaning: Wipe the adapter with a dry, soft cloth. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosols.
- Storage: When not in use, ensure all prongs are retracted and the retractable cable is coiled back into its housing. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
- Fuse Replacement: The adapter is equipped with a 10A fuse and includes a spare. If the adapter stops functioning, it may indicate a blown fuse. To replace, locate the fuse compartment (usually a small tray that slides out) and replace the old fuse with the spare. Ensure the adapter is unplugged before attempting replacement.
6. Troubleshooting
- Adapter Not Powering On:
- Check if the adapter is securely plugged into the wall outlet.
- Verify that the wall outlet is functional.
- Inspect the fuse. If blown, replace it with the spare fuse provided.
- Devices Not Charging:
- Ensure your device's charging cable is properly connected to both the adapter and your device.
- Confirm that your device is compatible with the adapter's voltage and power output.
- Try a different port or cable to rule out a faulty connection.
- Retractable Cable Not Retracting:
- Gently pull the cable slightly further out, then release it to allow the internal mechanism to retract it smoothly. Avoid forcing the cable.
