Troubleshooting
Device connected to an outlet does not power on.
Ensure the individual on/off switch for that outlet is in the 'on' position. Check if the device itself is functioning by testing it with another power source. Verify the outlet is receiving power by testing another known working device or checking the neon indicator light.
Neon indicator lights are not illuminating.
Confirm the individual switch for that outlet is in the 'on' position. Check if the main power source is active. If multiple lights are out, there might be an issue with the unit or the power supply; consider testing with a different outlet.
Device connected intermittently loses power.
Check the connection of the device's plug into the socket; ensure it is securely seated. The issue might be with the device itself or the connected cable. If multiple devices experience this, ensure the total load does not exceed the 13A maximum capacity.
Adapter feels warm during use.
A slight warmth is normal if operating near its maximum capacity. However, if it becomes excessively hot, immediately turn off and unplug all connected devices. Check that the total load does not exceed the 13A rating. Ensure connected devices have adequate ventilation.
