Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before installation, ensure the power supply is completely cut off at the main breaker. This unit requires a standard two-module wall mount. Verify that your current electrical box has the capacity for a two-module component to avoid fitting issues. For maintenance, keep the socket clear of dust and debris by wiping the exterior faceplate with a dry, lint-free cloth. Avoid the use of liquid cleaners or water near the terminals, and perform a periodic check of the wall mounting screws to ensure the socket remains firmly attached to the wall box.
