Instructions

Using the power strip
Read and follow the "Safety information" section carefully.
• Insert the earthed plug into a properly earthed mains socket (wall socket).
• Connect up to three devices to the sockets on the power strip.
• Use the main switch (on/off) to turn the sockets on and off. The switch isolates single pole of
the circuit. The built-in LED will turn on when the sockets are switched on.
When you turn the power strip on via the app, there is a delay of approximately 10
seconds compared to switching the power strip on via the on/off button.
Child safety lock
The sockets on the power strip feature a child safety lock that prevents children from inserting
objects into the socket connections.
Using the app to control the power strip
a) Wi-Fi information
• Your Wi-Fi router must be congured to transmit over a 2.4 GHz frequency, and your
smartphone must be connected to the same network.
• The Wi-Fi network which is used to connect the power strip to the app must have an Internet
connection.
• The AP isolation function on your router must be disabled, and the router must not require
login via a web browser.
• There should not be a large number of devices connected to the Wi-Fi router at the same
time. Turn some of the devices off during the pairing process, and then switch them back on.
• Ensure that the product is displayed correctly in the app.
• If the Wi-Fi password is changed, the pairing process must be repeated.
