Operating Instructions
1. Your Step Down transformer should be placed in a dry and well ventilated area at all times. A clearance of
10cm is required on all sides.
2. When using appliances with inductive loads (e.g. refrigerators, a/c units, industrial fan and some hand tools),
it is necessary to use a larger transformer. Inductive loads sometimes require 3-5 times the power to
manage the start-up current, i.e. a 1200W refrigerator may draw 3500W+ on start up. In this instance a
4000W+ transformer is recommended.
3. For units with resistive loads (e.g. computers, TVs, printers), a transformer with 20% more wattage is
recommended. E.g. A 200W transformer is not recommended for a 200W appliance. A 250W+ is preferred.
4. Make sure your appliance is switched off before switching the transformer power on.
