• Interruttore a levetta: Use the toggle lever to turn connected lighting or other loads ON or OFF.
• TampPresa resistente agli er: Insert a standard two-prong or three-prong electrical plug into the receptacle to provide power to plug-in devices. The tamper-resistant shutters will open only when a two-pronged plug is inserted simultaneously into both openings.

6. Manutenzione

This device requires minimal maintenance.

• Pulizia: Pulire la superficie con un panno morbido, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or harsh chemicals, as these may damage the finish or internal components.
• Ispezione: Periodically inspect the device for any signs of damage, such as cracks, discoloration, or loose connections. If any damage is observed, disconnect power and replace the device.

7. Risoluzione Dei Problemi

• No Power to Switch or Receptacle:
  • Check the circuit breaker or fuse in your electrical panel. Reset the breaker or replace the fuse if tripped or blown.
  • Ensure all wiring connections are secure and correctly made.
• Switch Not Controlling Load:
  • Verify that the load (e.g., light fixture) is functioning correctly.
  • Check the wiring connections to the switch terminals.
• Plug Does Not Insert into Receptacle:
  • Ensure you are inserting the plug straight and applying even pressure to both prongs simultaneously. The tamper-resistant mechanism requires both prongs to be inserted at the same time to open the internal shutters.
  • Inspect the plug for bent or damaged prongs.
