4. Safety Information and Important Notes

  • Not a Voltage Converter: This travel adapter is designed to adapt plug shapes, not to convert voltage. Ensure your devices are dual voltage (100V-250V) compatible before plugging them in. Using non-dual voltage devices with this adapter in a country with different voltage may cause damage to the device or the adapter.
  • Fuse Protection: The adapter is equipped with double 10A fuses for overcurrent protection. If the fuse blows, it can be replaced with a spare fuse (not included).
  • Avoid plugging in high-power appliances such as hair dryers, straighteners, or curling irons unless they explicitly support the local voltage (100V-250V).
  • Do not expose the adapter to moisture or extreme temperatures.
  • Keep out of reach of children.
