Contact a licensed electrician to replace power switches and wall sockets, fit plugs, extension cords and light sockets. Incorrect installation can result in fatal injury and the risk of fire.

Warnings

ATTENTION

• Read this booklet carefully as it contains important instructions for a safe installation, use and maintenance.
• Important instructions to be kept for future reference.

The following basic precautions should always be followed when using electrical appliances:

1. Read all instructions before using the Wall Socket Switch (henceforth referred to as “the device”’).
   The Wall Socket Switch

2. The device must be used only for the purpose it was expressly designed; any use NOT complying with the instructions contained in the manual is considered inappropriate and dangerous. The manufacturer is NOT responsible for possible damages caused by the inappropriate and/or unreasonable use.

3. The installation of the device will be made by a licensed electrician. A wrong procedure may cause damages to persons, animals or objects, for which the manufacturer cannot be considered responsible.

4. Before use, check the integrity of the device. DO NOT operate the device when it is damaged. In case you are not sure, contact a licensed electrician. If the device is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent or a licensed electrician in order to avoid a shock hazard.

5. DO NOT attempt to connect multiple Adapters, or plug an Adapter into an Extension Socket, or vice versa into the device. This mistake can lead to fires, equipment failures and electrocution. Plugging two Adapters or Adapter + Extension Socket together reduces their current capacity which will result in voltage drop and overheating.

6. The packing materials (plastic bags, expanded polystyrene, etc.) must be kept out of the reach of children or disabled persons since they represent potential sources of danger.
   Location

7. The device is NOT suitable to be used or stored near heat sources (open flame, ovens, heaters, stoves, etc.) and/or in an explosive environment (in the presence of flammable substances such as gas, vapour, mist or dust, in atmospheric conditions when, after ignition, the combustion is spread in the air). Items containing these substances should never be placed in the device, and never be used to clean the device in order to avert the risk of fire or explosion.

8. DO NOT install the device outdoors. Install the device only indoors, protected from weather such as rain, direct radiation of the sun and dust. Outdoor sockets have insulation that protects against moisture, sunlight and abrasion, so using an indoor socket outdoors can create a fire hazard or result in electric shock.
   Operation

9. If you are using the device for the first time, you should:

   • Clean the device with a slightly damp cloth. Ensure that the device is completely dry before use. DO NOT use metal scouring pads.

   • Make sure to remove any label or protective sheet which may prevent its proper functioning.
     DO NOT

   • cover the device during functioning;

   • insert objects or body parts inside the protective cover of the device;

   • locate the device near curtains or textiles;

   • leave the device unsupervised during operation.

10. During operation, DO NOT touch the device with wet body parts, and it is recommended to have between you and the standing surface, an isolating element (for example, wearing shoes with rubber soles).

11. DO NOT soak the device in water or other liquids, wash it under the tap, or let any liquid flow into the internal casing of the device to prevent electric shock.

12. Switch the ON/OFF Switch of the device OFF and detach the plug of any appliance (holding it firmly with dry hands) inserted into the device if it is NOT used for a long period, and before storing, cleaning or performing any maintenance operation on those appliances.

13. In case of malfunction or anomaly during the functioning (e.g. smoke coming out of the device), switch the ON/OFF Switch of the device OFF and check the cause of the anomaly, if possible, with the support of a licensed electrician.

14. The device is intended for commercial use but to be used in households and similar applications, such as:

    • Staff kitchen areas in shops, offices, and other working environments;
    • Dormitories;
    • By clients in hotels, motels and other residential environments;
    • Bed and breakfast type environments.

15. The device can be used by children aged from 8 years and above and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards involved. Children shall NOT play with the device. Cleaning and user maintenance shall NOT be made by children. Keep the device out of reach of children less than 8 years old.

2. Insert the plug of an appliance into the device.
3. Switch the ON/OFF Switch of the device ON.
4. When any appliance attached to the device is to be switched off, switch off the appliance followed by the ON/OFF Switch of the device and then detach the plug of the appliance from the device.
