DX-TCADPT 1875-Watt
International Converter Set
Important safety instructions
Read and review these instructions before using the adapter/converter.
1 Check the product you intend to connect the adapter or converter to
use for the manufacturer’s voltage and wattage rating, which should
be located on the product.
CAUTION: Adapters alone do not convert voltage. To avoid
damaging your appliance, do not use without a voltage converter.
2 Do not leave the converter in the power outlet when not in use. Do
not continue to use the adapter/converter combo if it is not working
properly, has been damaged, or dropped in water.
3 Some appliances may operate a little more slowly when used in
foreign countries operating on 50 cycles (U.S. operates on 60 cycles).
4 At times there may be a very low humming sound in the converter,
appliance, or both. This is normal.
5 Due to unstable voltage in most foreign countries, if your appliance
has a built-in thermostat, it may shut o your appliance prematurely.
This does not mean your appliance or converter (or both) are not
working correctly. After your appliance cools down it should resume
operating correctly.
6 Make sure that the dual voltage selector switch on your appliance,
when provided, is in the correct voltage position before operating

Instructions for use
Warning: Indoor use only!
Appliances that operate on 110/120V will not work in most parts of the
world where the voltage is 220/240V. Your dual wattage converter

makes it possible to use your portable appliances almost anywhere in
the world. You simply set the LO/HI switch, plug the converter into the
power outlet, plug your appliance into the converter, then turn on your
appliance.
All appliances have a wattage rating marked on them and should be
checked before using.
Low watt setting
For use with battery chargers, electric shavers, radios, curling irons, and
other appliances that use less than 25 watts. The low setting can be
used for long periods of time on products with electronic circuitry that
are 0–25 watts, for example, battery chargers and radios.
High watt setting
For clothes irons, steamers, some hair dryers, and other appliances that
use from 26 to 1875 watts.
DO NOT use the HIGH setting for electronic circuitry products. The high
setting is designed to be used only for short periods of time
(approximately 10 minutes).
1 Select the correct watt setting.
Check the appliance’s rating plate for watts. If the wattage is not
indicated, multiply voltage by amps, for example,
120 V x 3 amps = 360 watts.
Then set the selector switch to the appropriate setting.
2 Insert the converter into a power outlet.
The converter pins on the converter will t most foreign power outlets.
Plug adapters for other countries are available. See the Adapter plugs
section.
3 Plug in your appliance.
Plug your 110V appliance into the outlet on the converter.
