IMPORTANT
INSTRUCTIONS:
Your Watson Step-Down Grounded
Voltage Converter is designed to down-
convert foreign 220/240 volt electrical
current to 110/120 volt U.S. current.
Watson Voltage Converters are available
in several wattage ranges. Be certain
you have selected the proper voltage
converter for your appliances.
Voltage converters do not convert
electric cycles (60 Hz American vs. 50
Hz foreign). Check with your appliance
manufacturer if you have any questions.
Some appliances will NOT operate
normally when used overseas, such as
microwave ovens, analog clocks, and
turntables.
