properly, “RESET” button will pop out.

5. Do not plug more than 11 amps total into the GFCI outlet.

6. Ensure the switch is in the center

7. The machine has two power settings, Low | and High ||.
ALWAYS start in the HIGH position, then to LOW if desired.

8. When daisy-chaining, turn one unit on at a time to prevent
excessive current inrush from starting multiple units at one time

9. Every month, press the “TEST” button to verify that it cuts-off
power to the GFCI. To restore power, press “RESET”. If the red
LED begins to flash, the receptacle has lost GFCI protection and
