3. Setup Instructions
- Connect to Power Outlet: Plug the power strip's 2m extension cord into a standard wall outlet. The 45-degree slim plug is designed to fit in tight spaces, allowing furniture to be placed close to the wall.
- Power Indicator: Once connected, the white LED indicator on the power strip will illuminate, confirming that power is supplied to the unit.
- Using the Retractable USB-C Cable:
- To Extend: Gently pull the USB-C cable from the side of the power strip. Pull it slightly longer than your desired length, then release it. The cable will lock into place at that length.
- To Adjust Length: If the cable is too long, pull it out slightly further, then release it again. It will retract slightly and lock at a shorter length. Repeat until the desired length is achieved.
- To Retract: Gently pull the USB-C cable forward until it fully extends, then release it. The cable will automatically retract smoothly into the power strip. The USB-C connector will magnetically attach to the side of the unit for secure storage.
- Wall Mounting (Optional): The power strip features two mounting holes on its underside. You can use appropriate screws (not included) to securely attach the unit to a wall or the side of a desk, keeping it off your workspace. Ensure the mounting surface is sturdy enough to support the unit and any connected devices.
- Non-slip Placement: If placing on a flat surface, ensure the non-slip pads on the bottom of the unit are clean and make full contact with the surface for stability.
4. Operating Instructions
- Using AC Outlets: Plug your devices (e.g., laptops, lamps, small appliances) into the 3 AC outlets. Ensure the total power consumption does not exceed 1500W.
- Using USB-C Ports:
- Retractable USB-C Cable: Connect the retractable USB-C cable directly to your compatible device for fast charging (up to PD 20W).
- Dedicated USB-C Port: Use the additional USB-C port with your own USB-C cable to charge compatible devices (up to 15W).
- Using USB-A Ports: Connect your devices using standard USB-A cables to the 2 USB-A ports for charging (up to 12W).
- Simultaneous Charging: You can use all AC outlets and USB ports simultaneously, provided the total power draw remains within the specified limits.
5. Maintenance
- Cleaning: Disconnect the power strip from the wall outlet before cleaning. Use a dry, soft cloth to wipe the surface. Do not use liquid cleaners or sprays.
- Storage: When not in use, ensure the retractable USB-C cable is fully retracted and magnetically secured. Store the power strip in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture.
- Cable Inspection: Regularly inspect the power cord and retractable USB-C cable for any signs of damage, fraying, or kinks. If damage is found, discontinue use immediately and contact customer support.
6. Troubleshooting
- No Power to Devices:
- Ensure the power strip's main plug is securely inserted into a working wall outlet.
- Check if the power indicator LED is lit. If not, try a different wall outlet.
- Verify that the device you are trying to power is correctly plugged into the power strip and is functioning properly.
- Slow Charging via USB Ports:
- Ensure your device supports fast charging (PD for USB-C) and that you are using a compatible cable.
- Some devices may charge slower if multiple high-power devices are connected simultaneously. Try disconnecting other devices to see if charging speed improves.
- Check the power requirements of your device against the output specifications of the USB ports.
- Retractable Cable Not Working:
- If the cable does not retract smoothly, gently pull it out completely and then release it. Avoid forcing the mechanism.
- Ensure there are no obstructions preventing the cable from retracting.
- Overload Protection: If the power strip stops providing power, it may have triggered its overload protection. Disconnect some devices, unplug the power strip from the wall, wait a few minutes, and then plug it back in.
