1. It is not recommended to connect a refrigerator to a multi-outlet. If it is unavoidable, please use one with a power rating of 15 ampere or higher.

2. Please call a qualified person to ground the house wiring. Make sure to use a grounded multi-outlet to prevent electricity leakage.

Plugging in a number of electronic appliances into a multi-outlet strip can cause fire and electricity leakages.
