• Ensure there is sufcient air circulation when you operate the product.
Never cover the product.
• If the product shows signs of damage, do not touch it, there is a risk
of death from an electric shock! First, switch off the mains voltage to
the socket to which the product is connected (switch off at the corresponding circuit breaker or remove the safety fuse or switch off at
the corresponding RCD protective switch, so that the socket is fully
disconnected). Only then remove the product from the mains socket.
Dispose of the damaged product in an environmentally friendly manner, stop using it. Replace it with an identical product.

Operation
The power consumption of the connected electrical con-
sumer load must not exceed 2000 W. In the event of an
overload, the internal thermal fuse of the wireless socket
switch is triggered. The thermal fuse is not self-resetting.
The wireless socket switch can then no longer be put into
operation. For proper operation, the distance between two
wireless socket switches should be at least 1 m.
• Plug the wireless socket switch into a household power socket. Make
sure that the wireless socket switch is turned off. The combination
switch (2) must not light up.
• Switch off the electrical consumer load that you want to operate via the
wireless socket switch through its mains switch.
• Connect the mains plug of the electrical consumer load to the wireless
socket switch.
• Switch the electrical consumer load on using its mains switch.
• Now switch the electrical consumer load on and off using the remote
control.
You can use the combination switch (2) on the wireless
socket switch to manually switch on/off the connected electrical consumer load.
a) Range
• The range of the radio signal transmission between the remote control
and wireless socket switch is up to 100 m in free eld.
This value, however, is the range when the transmitter and
receiver are visible to each other, without disrupting the
power. In practice, however, there are walls, rooms, ceilings
etc. between the transmitter and the receiver, which reduce
the range accordingly.
Due to the different inuences on the radio transmission,
no specic range can be guaranteed. However, trouble-free
operation is usually possible in a single family house.
• The range can be reduced by:
- Walls and reinforced concrete ceilings
- Coated or vaporised insulating glass panes
- Proximity to metallic and conductive objects (e.g., radiators)
- Proximity to people
- Broadband interference, e.g. in residential areas (DECT phones,
mobile phones, radio headsets, wireless speakers, wireless
weather stations, baby monitoring systems, etc.)
- Proximity to electric motors, transformers, power-supply units and
computers
- Proximity to poorly shielded or uncovered computers or other
electrical appliances
