How to use

To use the Elgotech R-40CA, simply insert the plug-in end of the splitter directly into a standard grounded wall outlet. Ensure that the connection is firm and fully seated. Once installed, you can plug up to four individual devices into the available sockets on the adapter. Always ensure that the total power consumption of all connected devices does not exceed the maximum rated load of the wall outlet and the adapter itself.

What to consider before purchase

• Check the total wattage of devices you intend to connect
• Ensure your wall outlet is grounded to utilize the safety features
• Verify that the physical space around the outlet allows for the adapter dimensions

Usage recommendations

Always inspect the adapter for any signs of physical damage before each use. Do not daisy-chain multiple power splitters together, as this can create a fire hazard and overload the electrical circuit.
