Solve a problem

•If you are using a power strip, make sure the power strip is on. Or, try plugging the product directly into a power outlet.

•Test the power outlet to make sure it is working. Plug in an appliance that you know works, and see if the appliance has power. If not, then there might be a problem with the power outlet.

•If you plugged the product into a switched outlet, make sure the outlet is switched on. If it is switched to on but still does not work, then there might be a problem with the power outlet.

Cause: The product was not properly connected to a power supply. If this did not solve the issue, try the next solution.
